    I am new to Bowhunting.com and in 2 days i have watched all the shows from season 2 and 3. I was stuck to my computer going through all of them. Thanks for those guys for a great show every time!
    I got myself the Sony HDR-AX2000E, it seems like it is the same camera as Todd is using in his filming. I noticed that he is using a very nice stand for his camera that attached to the tree in which he sits. Does anybody know if that is a stand that is for sale in America and if so where should i start to look for one? It is quite a heavy camera and to keep the camera still makes the movie 100% better.
    Thanks, i will be grateful for any help.

    no problem. I ended up getting the muddy outfitter arm and it works great super smooth and not super heavy and for around $120 cant beat it

    I am pretty sure Todd is using the 3rd Arm. I know for a fact that he used to and dont think he has changed. Eitherway 3rd or Muddy are both awesome tree arms!

    Correct - Todd is using the 3rd arm. For self-filming it works better b/c the base is much more compact that the Muddy.

    I will try to order one and see how the shipping to South Africa will go? Hopefully it should go fine!
