Wanting to purchase a carbon fiber tripod setup before bear season, I sold my Leupold carbon fiber tripod in hopes to snag a lighter one but most are currently sold out. Thanks!!

Wow this looks like a great setup! Any other head suggestions? I don’t know what normal is for head costs but $165 is painful. I’m getting my first spotter soon so this was really helpful info.I just picked up a Sirui Traveler 5C for $99 on Amazon and topped it with a Sirui VA-5 head from Camera Land NY for like $130. Total package weighs about 47 ounces.
Before I just broke down and bought the VA-5, I was looking at the Manfrotto BeFree Live, which can be had for around $99, I believe. Otherwise, I’d cruise the forums for a used Sirui, Gizmoto, Manfrotto, etc. If you’re really on a budget, GoHunt has the Slik 707E pan head ($50), but it looks like they’re currently out of stock.Wow this looks like a great setup!

Also, the Sirui 5C I mentioned above comes with a ball head, so you wouldn’t necessarily NEED to buy something to put on it right away.Wow this looks like a great setup! Any other head suggestions?
