Leica Duovid Binoculars-The Outdoorsmans Lightweight Tripod-Best Hunting Optics Set Up
You are going to see more hunting type articles from me this time of year because...it is that time of year. Everybody I know is getting into shape and their gear ready for upcoming big game hunts. We talk alot here about optics because it is something that serious, western style hunters are interested in and since I are one, here ya go.
I get many email messages everyday from readers with specific questions about one thing of another but the majority of them lately have been about my hunting optics set up. Maybe I can kill a few birds with one stone here. This is what I have been using for a few years now with excellent results.
Everything shown here is available from The Outdoorsmans in Phoenix. You can certainly get the Leica binoculars somewhere else but I don't know why you would. The rest of it is made for and exclusively found at The Outdoorsmans
Editors Note: Let me say something here about my relationship with The Outdoorsmans before I get accused of being in the bag for them. I live in Scottsdale and they are located in Phoenix. I was a customer long before I started this site and I became a big fan of their proprietary equipment as they were developed and I used them in the field. I am a sucker for good people, great products and honest to God customer service which is why I patronize The Outdoorsmans. It is also why I am pleased to recommend them to you . However, I receive no compensation from them, or anybody else for that matter, in return for promoting their products. As with everything else you see on this site, we use what we like and promote what we use. We are opinionated but we can be persuaded or even proven wrong but we cannot be bought, and believe me, some have tried.
From top to bottom, these are the components of my system.
Leica Duovid 10-15x50 binoculars
Outdoorsmans Leica Trinovid Duovid Binocular Stud
Outdoorsmans Binocular Adapter
Outdoorsmans Pistol Grip Head
Outdoorsmans Quick Release Adapter with one Adapter Plate
Outdoorsmans Panning Attachment (by Jim White)
Outdoorsmans Center Post Extension-Long
Outdoorsmans Med. Tripod Leg Set
Tactical Tailor Camoform Tape in MARPAT Digital Desert
The Panning attachment simply allows me to bump the glasses left or right with my nose as opposed to gripping the Piston Grip every time I want to move the glasses. It is a convenience item that adds extra weight. I will use it when I am working out of the truck or the Ranger but probably won't pack it in on my back.
That is my backpack hunting rig and as I said, it has worked beautifully for me. The Outdoorsmans tripod and accessories are well made and work as designed. The Leica Duovids give me variable power flexibility and outstanding performance.
I have recently tested some very good products but nothing that will cause me to change this set up. I am happy with it as is.
