    There area bunch of us running the PRS heads on the Slik tripods in the competitive game. I got a medium tripod and have used it the last few years for the Steel Safari and SH Cup with great success. If you practice with it you can be proficient out to well past 600 yds sittingor kneeling. Standing can be a little tougher. You can even leave a leg up and shoot the tripod like sticks to meet the rules of the Sporting Rifle Match in Raton.
    The HogSaddle, while extremely well built and really cool, is expensive and takes time to tighten up. I never adjust the head,don’t have a Manfrotto quick release head nor want one – I don’t see the point and it is just added weight and something else to get caught up on your sling or gear.
    Mike you need to spread your wings past just the Pdog matches and hit the CRC and NRA Sporting Rifle Matches. Once you get afew of the Raton matches under your belt you will want to hit the SS or the SH Cup – where you get to use a tripod like that.

    You are absolutely right.... I need to look into these matches. I love the P-dog matches just so I could hangout with y'alls and learn a lil bit more and more as I go.

    The kneeling and sitting part I find myself pretty steady...and your right about the standing part... I can't hold the reticle still enough to save my life
