Do-All Outdoors Lazy Leg Mono-Pod

Posted by Filed Under Photo Monopods with No Comments

Comfort – Whether you’re male or female, old or young with the Lazy Leg the weight of the gun is no longer an issue. All turkey hunters can relate to tired arms and numb legs. We have had many hunters try the Lazy Leg in person and have encourage them to try and get into an uncomfortable position. The answer is always the same: “It is practically impossible get uncomfortable with this rest”. Quieter – Not having to use your legs as a gun rest allows the hunter to have a greater range of motion (shooting area). With this the hunter is a lot quieter because he or she is not having to position their lower body (knees) to support the gun. This also allow the hunter to have a 180 degree range of motion. A right handed shooter could actually shoot their gun left handed. Compact – The Lazy Leg becomes a part of the gun. Although it is folded underneath the barrel of the gun the hunter can still shoot without having to use the Lazy Leg. Because the barrel clamp does not touch the vent rib it does not interfere with the shooters line of sight. The Lazy Leg can also be used on over and under shotguns.

Vanguard Quest T62 Tripod/Bipod/Monopod Review By JHO

Posted by Filed Under Photo Monopods with No Comments

JHO’s first look at the Vanguard Quest T62 3 in 1 tripod, bipod and mono-pod. New for 2010 is the Vanguard Quest T62 with durable heavy gauge aluminum construction, soft foam contoured hand grip and anti-slip rubber feet.. It’s removable V-shaped yoke with rubber fins swivels 360° so you can make shots at every angle without repositioning the shooting stick. Remove the yoke and use its universal ¼”-20 thread bolt with spotting scopes, camcorders or cameras. Best of all, Quest T62 is a great traveler weighing just over two pounds and folding to less than 2.5 feet in height. Twisting leg locks make height adjustment quick and easy. Unit extends to over 5 feet in height. VANGUARD’s own demonstration video is available at www.vanguardoutdoors.com. Discuss this item in our Gear Discussion forum at www.jesseshunting.com FTC Disclaimer. This Vanguard Quest T62 tripod was provided free of charge to JHO for review.
