    I'm in the market for a new camera arm just looking for some opinions.

    Depends on your setup but for me 4th Arrow appears to meet my needs the best. Prior I had used 3rd Arm and Muddy. The muddy arm was stable but the base was huge and additionally bases were expensive. With the 4th arm I was able to get several bases and reduce the stuff I have to take into the woods and it decreases setup noise. Several had complained about it being too short so they now offer an extension arm. Hope that helps.

    I've been running Fourth Arrow for 2 years now, and so far I love it! I'm running the Carbon Fiber arm and it really is light weight for sure. I did have an issue with the first arm I bought from them, and that was the part that connects the arm to your fluid head was tapped in slightly off center which made it impossible to get your camera level. I messaged them about it and had my new arm to my house in 2 days with a label to send the bad one back for free. Crazy awesome customer service for sure. Prior to my Fourth Arrow arm I was running a Muddy, but like copperhead said, the Muddy bases were just too big. 90% of the time I'm solo hunting/filming, so I needed that light-weight and actual nice bases to make my life a little easier.
