Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Mark, Enrique is refering to the Hang Tight Harness http://www.hangtightharness.com/I like it better than the Crooked Horn in that it does not bounce with heavy binos or swing out. I did not like it when wearing a coat. If you're interested in a used pair, let me know. I am now using the Bino Manager, which also doesn't bounce and holds em close, but can be worn outside a coat. http://www.archerywarehouse.com/binoaccess.htmDoug~RR

Always found the strap better than any "manzear/bro".

The Hang Tight Harness web page is horrid ... they don't even come close to showing you (visually or verbally) how/why their system works, and why you should invest in one ...
The Bino Manager, on the other hand, seems to be a fantastic system ... I'm seriously considering ordering one of them ...

This is the best I've tried, and I've used it for years. The bra system is not the easiest to get off, but is worth it. http://www.eagleoptics.com/index.asp?pid=3843

I have to agree with Eremicus here. Single strap short as possible, just enough to get over my head, for reasons already stated. This year marks my 20th year with my Zeiss 10x40 B, now on its' 3rd strap, and I just can't see messin' with the most efficient system. Easy on, easy off, no fuss, no muss.

I LIKE THE LOOKS OF THE BINO MANAGER AS WELL!

Crooked Horn makes a Bino Shield that is a pouch that fits my Zeiss binocs & has a strap that fits around my chest. I use the strap that came from Zeiss around my neck. The pouch has a zipper storage area for a cleaning kit. When in Africa unless in a lot of sand I suspend under my arm with the strap only like my PH. This has worked for me many years.

I can't explain how the Swar system works, and have never seen the other brand you mention. The elastic is fairly stretchy but has good memory.
I used straps for years and decided to try the bra because I wasn't satisfied. Now I am, but you really cant ask for advice on equipment and get any answer that isn't filled with contradictions.

The Swaro one I have is NOT the same thing as the Crooked Horn. The snaps are very cheesy and the elastic is poorer. I'm not completely sold on the bra thing
