It reduces booming fatigue by counteracting the amplified downward force created by a microphone and shockmount at the far end of the pole. This improves balance, stability and maneuverability, especially during long shooting days or when working with heavier microphone setups. Made in the USA.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eThe Mighty Boom Hodges Counterweight Full is engineered to reduce operator strain caused by the lever effect of long boompoles. Even lightweight microphones can feel significantly heavier over time due to the downward movement force at the tip of the pole. By adding mass to the base, the counterweight shifts the balance point closer to the operator, making the pole \u003cem style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003efeel\u003c\/em\u003e lighter and easier to control.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eConstructed from solid heavy metal and covered with foam for comfort, the counterweight is durable and optimized for professional field use.
