Shots in Mountain Country can be long and challenging and a lightweight quick detachable bipod can be an invaluable tool.

This episode I sit down with a very good friend of mine, Rob Gearing.

He's one of the coolest individuals in the

outdoor industry wonderful human being a mountain climber from way back and he has

designed what I consider to be the single finest backcountry hunting

bipod on the market as well as a very cool tripod system both are carbon fiber

very lightweight and both incorporate the quality that you need when you're going

on a hunt where an equipment fail means a hunt fail.

Now we've recorded this at a recent hunting show and as there always is in

situations like this there's some background hum but this is a very cool conversation with a really amazing fun individual.

I'm Joseph von Benedict and this is the backcountry hunting podcast.

All right, welcome to our podcast today.

I'm sitting down with a really special friend of mine.

It's Rob Gearing.

He is the man behind Spartan precision equipment.

I first got to know Rob when I became acquainted with his

five ounce carbon fiber bipod, and I've since become a disciple.

I've hunted with that from Africa to Alaska and across the west.

And it's one of those tools now that I just don't leave home without when I go hunting.

So I really appreciate you taking the time.

It's a busy showing and your Spartan booth is just humming rub.

So thank you for taking the time to visit with me today.
