This is not a budget tripod dressed up with a fancy name. The Bantam carries the full DNA of the original BOG DeathGrip, one of the most trusted shooting support systems in the field, and squeezes it into a package that tips the scales at just 3 lbs 3 oz. That is up to 44% lighter than comparable tripods on the market, which means more miles with less suffering, and a whole lot less complaining from your knees on the way back to the truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bantam adjusts from 20 inches all the way up to 42 inches, covering everything from a low kneeling position to a comfortable sitting shot. The Dual-Action clamping head locks down with authority and handles up to 40 lbs, so whether you are running a lightweight rifle with a standard scope or a heavier setup with a big spotting scope, this tripod is not going to let you down at the moment of truth. Twist leg locks keep deployment fast and whisper quiet, because the last thing you need is a bunch of clicking and rattling when a mature buck is 80 yards out and quartering to you. Independently adjustable legs handle hillsides, rocks, and every other thing nature throws at you without making you fight the equipment instead of the hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBOG built this thing with the details that matter most in the field. The high density foam grip stays warm even on cold mornings when metal handles would have you questioning your life choices at 5 AM. The large rubber feet plant firmly on any surface without slipping, and the non-marring rubber inserts keep your rifle or bow protected while holding it securely in the cradle. When it is time to move, the rubber leg retention strap keeps the whole package cinched tight and quiet against your pack. The hardcoat anodized gunmetal gray finish is tough, low-profile, and built to take years of field abuse without looking like it rode through a hailstorm after the first season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt a price point that is up to 50% less than what the competition is asking for similar specs, the DeathGrip® Bantam is one of those rare pieces of gear that delivers more than it promises. It punches above its weight class in every category that matters, and it does it without making you sell a rifle to afford it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eCheck Out The Full Lineup Of BOG Gear\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bog\" style=\"display: inline-block; background: #f58220; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-weight: 800; font-size: 22px; line-height: 1; padding: 14px 26px; border-radius: 10px; box-shadow: 0 8px 18px rgba(0,0,0,.12); transition: transform .12s ease, box-shadow .12s ease;\" aria-label=\"Shop BOG Hunting Gear\"\u003e BOG Hunting Gear\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Hunters Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DeathGrip® Bantam earns serious respect from hunters who have tried to go light without giving up stability and got burned by flimsy, wobbly alternatives that folded the first time a real load was placed on them. The 360-degree pan control and 120-degree tilt range mean you are not fighting your equipment when a target appears at an unexpected angle, you are simply adjusting and squeezing. For spot-and-stalk hunters, backcountry elk hunters, and anyone running miles to find their shot, this tripod is one of those pieces of kit that earns a permanent spot in the pack after the very first trip out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also works equally well for the hunter who wants steady supported shots from a blind or a fixed position. The sitting to kneeling height range from 20 to 42 inches means this tripod fits a wide variety of hunting setups without awkward compromises. Pair it with a heavy rifle, a compact hunting rifle, a rangefinder, or a spotting scope, and the 40 lb holding capacity means you will never outgrow it. BOG has been building this category of gear for years and the Bantam shows exactly what happens when a proven design gets refined for hunters who refuse to carry any dead weight into the backcountry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow much does the BOG DeathGrip Bantam weigh and is it actually light enough for backcountry use?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe DeathGrip® Bantam weighs 3 lbs 3 oz (1.45 kg), making it up to 44% lighter than comparable tripods on the market.
