Comment: The Backcountry Lite Ball Head is the quintessential alpine hunters tripod head. We wanted to have a lightweight, simple, robust and easy to use tripod head - and this checks all the boxes. Design Features: Weight is critical on backcountry hunts, and this skeletonized ball head comes in at only 4.8 oz. Arca-Swiss dovetail for a wide range of compatibility. (1X quick release plate included) 1/4 Turn Quick Locking lever makes adjustments fast and easy. Compact height of just 2.5" gives a low center of gravity and saves space in the pack. 3/8-16 Mounting socket; universal to nearly all tripods. Lockable 360° Panoramic Base
