My Bog Death Grip just has been improved 100 percent. I installed 'Little Crow Gunworks' ball kit. https://www.littlecrowgunworks.com/

I’ve dirt-napped a lot of stuff off the Bog Pod DG. Mine is the carbon fiber version, and I’ve used it from Colorado to Washington to Hawaii…. Here it is after pounding 5 Axis Deer in about 30 seconds, from a standing position.

If I got a adapter like that I would kept mine. I did not like the way it held my guns. Only one it held decent wat the one with the arca rail.

People complain on Amazon regarding the weight. I'm ok with that since it keeps everything sturdy and stable. I plugged two coyote with mine so far. And we have another permission tonight. If I could have gotten it 50% off like the OP, I'd be really happy.

It was quite a D-head comment for sure. Damn nothing wrong with liking the good stuff over low end. The bash comment was most likely from someone who has never used an expensive tri pod. Lol.

Check out the slik 834 from Doug at cameralandny.
I’m not sure there is much difference between the bog and the slik other than the price.
No need to spend more for a airgun use.
Top it with a decent ball head and arca clamp.

The BOG is a decent unit. Adding a ball head is a huge improvement and I've done that to both of my BOG's. That said the slightly more expensive Innorel is a stiffer, more stable platform and came with a large diameter ball head. If the $800+++ models are as much an improvement over the Innorel, as the Innorel is to the BOG... I can see where it would be worth the added expense.
The Death Grip clamp is a heavy piece of equipement. If you go to an Arca rail and lose the clamp it saves close to a couple pounds.

Agreed… and arca rail is the way to go, most of my rifles wear one now. I’ve also got a couple arca to pic rail adapters that work really well. I’ve noticed they even have ball heads that will accept both arca and Picatinny… so many options now.

Bog sells another kind that fits over your car door so you can shoot out the window hahaha! I am not kidding. It's a thing. I don't know where you can shoot from your car but, hey lets not skuff the leather, AmiRite?

In photography a common cliché is that you don't buy a tripod, you marry one. I am married to my Manfrotto. Sky is the limit on tripods, seriously. There is no upper limit. My god have you seen the price of some of the telescope tripods? I have been playing with camera tripods and trying to get them to stay into a firearm's bipod adaptor since the very first time I saw my oldest tripod (30 years) and my first gun (21 years) ago in the same room together. For the most part I did just threw a bag on it. "I am married to my man, Frotto." lol I have nothing to do today, clearly.

How much do you like that Arken? Also is that just a battery bank or as a hard drive? Your set up is cool.

I've been generally happy with the Arken Zulus. The compact size and light weight is why I got it. Only thing I don't like is the huge magnification. Too much for hunting/not enough field of view at 5X. I got it before the 3 X 12 came out. DNT now sells them, and their customer service is much improved.
18650 battery lasts most of the day, but like many other NV's the IR light eats power after dark. Yes that's a power bank/jump starter I have hooked up to it. The sling that Little Crown Gun works sells works great for holding it under the gun.

You think the 3x12 would solve the issue for you? I used to play with digital NV years back but I never saw any major leaps in technology and availability the way Gen 3 and thermals did. I don't have money for a clip on Gen 3 or thermal any decade soon so I guess what I am hoping to hear is that it is totally worth the nuances and learning curve. It's hard to argue with their price, if so.

Money can only buy happiness . Does your purchase make you happy ? then it is worth it .
