Any suggestions on a harness? Any suggestions on ones that you have used or have so I eliminate the garbage?

When I had some 10x50s, I found the Crooked Horn harness to allow too much bouncing and swinging. Thus, I went to the IPI Bino Manager (now sold by MadDog) and was much happier as it did not bounce or swing. Recently, I have picked up the Alaskan Creations bino pouch for use with the Leica 10+15 Duovids.

Do you know of any harness that works with the front straps? I have MR Crew cab and I am trying to get something to work with either the back straps that have a loop or the front strap. I ran a little string through my binoculars and the back straps and fits real good. No bouncing, weight balanced, etc. Only problem is to getting my pack on and off. Someone has made this already and is for sell somewhere, I'm sure of it! I just dont want to wrestle with the full harness, which seems to be the most common harness out there.

The first link has different connectors etc that might help connect to about anything. http://optechusa.com/product/detail/?PRODUCT_ID=48&PRODUCT_SUB_ID=&CATEGORY_ID=15I have two of the Nimrod Bino-topia harness systems that I like a lot. They do not have elastic shoulder straps, so they will not feel so bouncy with bigger binoculars. They are also made in the USA. http://www.nimrodpacks.com/hunt/N9.htmlThese vests were at the NW Sportsman's show. They have potential, but I will wait untill they offer something beside Blaze Orange. https://albinovest.com/
