Accessory to hold boom

[David C jones]

Hi Rick-

There are several out there:

“Boom Mate”
“Remote Audio Boom Boy”
General Brand’s boom holder
and TAI Audio’s boom holder

The first two are available at Trew Audio. I use the Boom Mate myself.

Hope this helps :o)

I use the Boom-Mate as well. Interestingly enough, several years ago I was in a Walmart and noticed they had these fishing pole holders that were on clearance for like $8 or something. They were exactly the same as the Boom-Mate but with a threaded base. However, I’ve not seen them since. It’s worth a shot though to check the Wally world in your area to see if they have them.

C-stand or combo stand, grip head and a boom mate is what you need.
