I have a very heavy tripod and had a terrible time carrying it around with out hurting my self. This was the best option i could find and i love. It took a minute to put on and adjust and your set. It's easier then a bag just un-clip one side and your ready to start.
Most of my photography is nature and lightening the load is very important. This simple padded, adjustable tote strap has replaced the cumbersome tripod bag I used to use to transport my Benbo tripods into the bush. You need not worry about where to stash your bag when the tripod is in use. You can leave the strap attached to the tripod without hinderance, You can even transport the tripod with the camera attached at sporting events. Beats a tripod bag for most needs.
