Bradgsxr Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I am wondering if anyone has any other ways of mounting their go pro for filming your shooting, I have the head strap but have heard of people mounting to their bands on their muffs but don't know what mount they would be using, any help or other ideas would be greatly appreciated - Thanks Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctay Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 They have a new "QuickClip" that attaches directly to your hat. I use the headstrap and like it. You could attach to ear protection with any of the self sticking tabs but I suspect that it would add height to your camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmt Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I've seen people use the GoPro chest rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthonyjhallen Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Zip ties? I drilled a couple of holes in a Contour mount and zipped it to my NVG mount on my kevlar. It works like a champ. You should be able to do the same to the top portion of your muffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradgsxr Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 Hey Thanks guys for the ideas, I will be looking for the new quick clip mount and I like the idea of drilling one out for zip ties ( wish I would have thought of that ) but that is why I thought I would ask here, somebody has always thought of another way to do things - Thanks again - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to do the same to the top portion of your muffs. I did something similar. Drilled a couple of holes in the headband mount that it came with and used the mounting screws from the rail sections to attach it to my moe handguard. Of course that only covers filming my rifle.

The square plactic one. Just trim it to the size you need then drill and zip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUBL Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 My son mounted our go pro to the right side of his rifle (it stuck right on the magazine well).......holds really well so far. I will say however.....he is shooting Ruger Rimfire....not 3 gun. Turning out some good video though. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markhawkeyeordnance Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I have screwed around with this quite a bit and the best shots we got came from the head strap. I did a muff mount and it was very shakey from movement and long gun recoil. It also transmits a ton of negative sound to the mic. I highly recommend running it concurrent with a smartphone or hand cam. This gives you two angles and a much better soundtrack.

Hardmix Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Agreed, head mount is on workable option. Hardmix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hceuterpe Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Chest strap would work great with something like skiing, but I don't think so with rifle/pistol, or any activity that covers the center of your body. I also concur with head mount. This might work well: http://shop.gopro.com/mounts/head-strap-plus-quickclip/ACHOM-001.html#/start=1 Make sure you get it on tight though, or else it will shake like crazy and your viewers will get dizzy if it's bad.

gng4life Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Got a GoPro tripod mount, drilled a hole in my hat visor, found some tripod sized screws at the hardware store, and now have a great method to securely hold the GoPro on my hat. I got the idea from a guy at Nationals a few years ago and it has worked ever since. Sent from the range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
