camera mount question

[OrangeBlood]

hunting from a tripod with no railing, is there a mount for this scenario? Or would this be DIY build?

I don't believe I'll have a tree close enough to the platform for a arm type of mount, I was thinking of maybe making some type of bar that extends from the platform that I could attach the arm to. but I also don't want to have the reinvent the wheel if there is already something out there like that.

I'm very interested in this topic as well... I'll be watching this one.

I had the same problem, I found a Manfrotto magic arm and super clamp Can be seen by CLICKING HERE

Then, I welded a small piece of tubing to the frame of the chair on my tri-pod and I clamp the super clamp to the square tubing.... Works out pretty well!!!

FYI, I found the arm and super clamp here on TBH for half that price, so you may want to look for some used gear

Actually, THIS is the arm I have with the super clamp...

I just bought a Midland camera that comes with a fitting where you screw in the stabilizer. I've tested it and it works good so I'm hands free. I haven't used it yet for a kill but will after Christmas.

Here's the link showing the screw in clamp for the camera. I'll post a link to the camera next. You can also attach the camera to bikes, ATVs, and hats.you can buy a entire kit system.
