Omanyra 2,518 Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 No jd but I was looking at a one the other day belonging to a friend, think it would probably work better, as you know wildlife shooting can be quick sharp shooting so hefty tripods can be a problem Ok I suppose if your set up in a hide or bedded down Defo thinking about one jd Thanks Bill 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
