Aluminum Hunting Monopod - 21"-67" Shooting Tripod Stand with 360 Rotating V Yoke Head for Rifle, Outdoors

As a mechanical engineer, this multifunction tripod stand was thoughtfully designed.Without referring to the manual, I spent 2 to 3 hours assembling/dissembling it, and tried out all the various options this amazing product had to offer, and no joke it felt like a toy that was made for me; I guess I’m a nerd engineer. I’m not saying it takes this long to put it together, it was me who was appreciating the design, as a matter of fact it can be assembled in few minutes and be ready to go!Functionality wise, in particular the V-shaped option use (if you know what I mean), I was amazed how powerful this beast was, it was able to hold big toys weighing up to 40 pounds while standing still and staying sturdy, it offered pinpoint accuracy and was very portable in a way I was able to walk around while having the big toys resting on the V-shaped; in other words, you can lift the stick with your left hand while having your heavy toy resting on the v-shaped and your right hand carrying the grip of your heavy toy, then walk around and change locations as desired. I’m 6 feet tall and this stand actually extended almost a feet above my height at full expansion, I’m assuming the description for this item mentioning that it extends up to 67 inches is not accurate because it extends much higher than this which is a plus!An advice worth mentioning, if you want this stand to hold heavy toys, don’t assemble it as shown in the manual, instead you must have the heavier/wider base of the stick screw on the tripod first. This is a well known concept in my field of expertise, heavier and stronger base holds much stronger, similar to skyscrapers their bases are wider than their tops.

This stand is fantastic. Doesn't tip, extends to where you need it and extends very tall. I use it for shooting but it also comes w a phone holder to use that way. For shooting it works great

I brought this to the range today as that was its purpose. I love how easily it packs in my range bag, and it’s lightweight aluminum. Better than a typical tripod, in my opinion, because of all of the size possible positions, and it takes up less of a footprint.It helped keep my rifle steady while outdoors in the freezing cold today. The options to lock the legs of the tripod attachment in different angles is fantastic. The yoke is a hard rubber type material (not hard plastic), so it hugged the curve of my rifle well. It’ll serve well for creating videos, too, if I choose to do that, using its included cellphone clamp holder. Also of note, it did not fall over in the 15 mph winds today. I am thrilled to have this handy in my range bag for every time I might want it. And if I do not use it on a given range day, no big deal as it is so light and compact in my range bag. It is amazing that something 6 feet tall can shrink to its collapsed size. Maybe Mary Poppins was the inspiration for this device!

Like the product and that it adjustment hold tight. Only it is tippy at times and have to be careful with that.. Would be nice if the top adjustment would move by trigger as at times want to move up or down just a little to get better sight on target

Very easy to set up and super sturdy. I keep it in my vehicle at all times.

Just got the monopod stick last night. I just had to put it together to make sure it would be good for shooting my rifle. The stick portion comes in its own black bag. Same for the bottom tripod portion. I had to open the tripod and basically flip it all the way around to attach it to stick. There is also a phone holder, a point to use instead of the tripod for use as a walking stick. There is even parts to put on a camera or scope instead of the rubber V holder. And there is a belt pouch to carry everything if needed. All in all, great buy, multiple uses, and it is just damn pretty and sturdy to boot.

It is just not as sturdy as I expected it to be for use with a pellet gun.

It was a little pricey but worth the cost. Very easy to use, lightweight, and I would have never gotten this bad boy while stalking without it.
