Grab ‘n Go Alt-Azimuth Alternative to Clumsy Mounts

A telescope can be no better than the mount.  Among grab ‘n go mounts, the CNC-machined Half Hitch is in a class by itself, featuring amazing rigidity and roller-drive motion controls that are free of backlash and starting friction.  The Half Hitch uniquely combines free motions of the axes with the precision tracking of motion controls.  For visual observing, the nimble Half Hitch offers an efficient, cost-effective alternative to cumbersome equatorial mounts and fussy GoTo Alt-Az mounts.  It weighs only 7.5 pounds complete with dovetail plate, Sky Commander DSC, Balance Trimmer, and finder bracket, yet it is rigid enough to carry some 130 mm APO refractors or some 8-inch Newtonians.

The Half Hitch tightly integrates every function you will ever need for visual grab ‘n go astronomy.  It’s a complete mounting system compressed into one convenient package — designed to complement and enhance the finest optical systems for the best possible observing experience.  Some alt-az mounts have lower prices, but none deliver as much overall value as the Half Hitch.

The Half Hitch delivers the true economies of top-notch performance, reliable operation, and lasting satisfaction.  The Half Hitch is an elite product that is built in very limited numbers to the highest quality standards available in any mount of any type.  The Half Hitch is also easy to operate and maintain so that a novice astronomer seeking high quality equipment can quickly master and use it to full advantage.
