Spartan ambassador Johanna Clermont's latest film takes her into the Polish countryside after roebuck. Hunting with a local guide, working field edges and woodland, playing the wind and waiting for a buck to make an appearance, and showing off the flexibility and ease of use of the SpringBok Tripod.
Out After Roebuck
This is classic roe stalking. Early mornings and quiet evenings on foot, glassing the edges where the crop meets cover and waiting for the bucks to step out and feed. There's a lot of watching and waiting before anything happens, and the film lets you feel that.
Johanna and her guide take it slow. They read the wind, use the light, and let the ground tell them where the deer are likely to be. No rushing from spot to spot. Just getting into the right place at the right time waiting patiently.
Where the SpringBok Tripod Comes In
When a buck is out in tall crop or long grass, you can't drop into prone. You have to take the shot standing, and that's a hard thing to do steady. This is exactly what the Springbok Tripod is built for. It's the lightest tripod Spartan makes, weighing under two pounds, and the silicone head lets you settle into a standing or sitting shot without stopping to fiddle with anything. The MagnaSwitch™ spigot attaches the rifle in minimal time, so there's no fumbling when every second counts.
Two of the three bucks in the film are taken off the Springbok. Her guide takes the first buck, and Johanna takes the second. Both times the tripod does its job, turning a tricky standing shot into a steady one with minimal fuss.
Three Bucks, One Good Trip
By the end, three roebucks have been taken, shared between Johanna and her guide over a few stalks. A great example of how hunting is more than just pulling the trigger, it's about the calls you make in the field, being able to trust your kit when you need it the most and trusting your gut.
