PIG0311-G Field Shooting Tripod, Gen 2

The Tripod is a very heavy duty and well made product.

Not too often are my expectations for a product or service exceeded but I have to say this is one of the rare instances where i was more than pleased. The materials, tolerances, and attention to detail in these really surprised me. I agree that the 26lb load rating is probably very conservative. This thing is solid! I mounted a Sunwayfoto DB-52 ball head and a Pig Saddle to it and cant wait to see what its capable of.

I am super happy with the 0311 Tripod! It's really sturdy and rugged. It seems like it will last until the end of time. I bought the 0311 along with the Hog Saddle and the FB52 ball head to use in PRS competition, and maybe some predator hunting. The fit and finish is very high quality, and I'm glad to know that it was designed by a sniper for snipers! Also very impressed with the weight capacity, my rifle weighs somewhere between 15-20lbs and this setup holds it with ease! As a veteran myself I'm happy to be supporting a veteran-owned company!

I own two other competitor products. I know what I am looking for in future tripod uses. This product has taken the best of all tripods and put them in to one very affordable product! Well done Josh!!!!

It is my second tripod I ordered from HOGSADDLE.com. The first one was paired to my spotting scope. I knew it will perform the same. I will recommend to everyone I know that are PRS shooter. Once again, thank you!

I am very impressed with this tripod. It is very stable and feels like I could stand on it. The finish is flawless and looks sexy AF. It is easy to operate the leg locks and the weight is not a problem, just strap it to the pack and roll out. I bought this to put my spotting scope on and it is a fantastic tool. I think the bag it came with was a waste of effort, but it does come with a bag if you need one. It also comes with metal spike feet which can be swapped with the installed rubber ones if you need them and a hook for hanging ballast below the center for added stabilization. I would recommend it to anyone.

GREAT TRi-POD!!! I recently switched from a Manfrotto that was half the size, but not near as stable and didn't come with any of the cool sniper minded features that this one did. It came with the shortened center pole for a "high prone position". It came with a hook to hang your ruck to stabilize it in standing position and it comes with spike feet for rough terrain.

I have never heard of being able to get all these in just one package, its usually a scavenger hunt and modifying a tri-pod meant for photography. The only draw back is its a bit bigger than my prior one to attach to the side of my ruck, but one most pay a price for the stability and ability to go high prone.

The price is amazing too, affordable on a cops or soldiers paycheck when you don't get the carbon fiber version.

This tripod is well built and sturdy. I was a little skeptical as the price was under $100 and many seem to be three or four times that price. I couldn't be happier with the quality and how sturdy it is. The adjust-ability of this is pretty amazing as it goes very low and can be raised to a height that is high enough for a very tall user.

I was going to go for the $400 carbon fiber tripod instead, but since I don't really plan on using this but a handful of times per year, I decided to save a few hundred bucks. Wow, this thing is nice! Definitely heavy duty; holds up my 20lb Desert Tech with ease. The rubber feet can be unscrewed and replaced by the included spike feet. The included center hook is great for to hold a bag and keep the tripod even more stable. I'm 5' 10" and its plenty tall for me, likely tall enough for someone well over 6'. Also included is a carrying bag, which I didn't expect, so that's a nice touch. Overall, I'm glad I opted for this tripod over others. Especially at $140!
