Spotting scope tripod

I updated to the Tricer AD carbon tripod with the Tricer lp pan head. I can't say enough good things about this setup. it is super lightweight, durable and easy to use.
 
Sounds cliche but RRS is hard to be beat if you have the budget & they have expanded their line up with some smaller lighter options

I will second the Tricer set up. I have the lighter BC tripod, but that LP pan head is awesome; the panning feature (hard to explain) is really slick, and makes grid glassing much easier and more precise. That would be my vote.
 
I have the Leupold carbon fiber tripod for backpacking… I like it for that application, have a heavy manfrotto for closer to the truck applications
 
For a light weight tripod that's great for binos and still works for my big Kowa 88 spotter, I use the Slik CF 634.

The guys at S and S Archery suggested I try it out for my spotter and worked fine. Sure, a bigger, heavier one will be more stable, but for when I'm backpacking I valued lighter. I've got a heavy, super stable Slik tripod for shorter scouting trips or close to the truck.

The Slik carbon fiber ones have treated me well so far. S & S Archery were very helpful on the phone too, in case you'd like to ask them recommendations for your specific use case.
 
Ive been liking Azaik tripods. Back country lite for glassing with a tricer lp pan head on the long column and I recently dropped an azaik ball head on to the included zero length column to shoot off of it. I also have an azaik ridgleline for shoot off of and an ebay special as a big tripod to shoot off of.
