BOG DeathGrip Bantam Tripod Realtree Original Camo
The BOG DeathGrip Bantam tripod in Realtree Original Camo is a compact shooting support designed for hunters and riflemen who need stable gun mounting without the weight penalty. At just over 3 lbs, this lightweight tripod delivers the clamping security of BOG's larger models while trimming bulk for field carry—making it ideal for spot-and-stalk hunters, varmint shooters, and anyone working ground where every ounce matters.
The Bantam adjusts from 20 to 42 inches in height, covering sitting and kneeling positions common to hunting and range work. Its dual-action clamping head securely locks rifles and shotguns up to 40 lbs, while twist leg locks let you dial in height quietly and quickly without fuss. The tripod tilts up to 120 degrees for shooting angles across uneven terrain, and a full 360-degree pan keeps you steady if a target moves. Rubber leg retention strap, non-marring rubber inserts, and grippy rubber feet handle real-world fieldwork—no slipping on rock or glass or marring your rifle's stock.
Realtree Original Camo finish blends into mixed brush and timber. This is a workhorse tripod for serious field shooters who refuse to choose between stability and portability.
