Bino harness

tracker12 said:
I am still searching for the perfect Bino harness. The Original FHF was good but I did not like the way it opened and if I leaned to far forward while opened the binos feel out. But weight and comfort was great. I am now using the Marsupial with magnets. I like the way is functions. Way better than the FHF but not as comfortable as the FHF IMHO and while low profile still baulkier tan the FHF. The new Stone Glacier looks like a nice option.

I wouldnt buy the stone glacier Because its the most expensive overseas made bino harness and they won't even respond if you ask where it is made

Is it not made in the USA anymore? Thought when I was looking at the Skyline one it was USA made but maybe I’m wrong.

No worries and no need to apologize. Asked to know for myself and to learn, not an attempt to call you out so I hope it didn’t come off that way.
 
I hunt thick areas the vast majority of the time so I have ditched binos when hunting in favor of a 7X rangefinder. I’ll drag the binos along on a scouting trip or hunting if I’m going to be in a situation where I can see a long way.

I wonder if the JX3 bino pack can be used standalone, without the rest of the JX3. The lid opens away from you, and incorporates a phone holder. Sort of like a chest desk the tacticool set uses with their JTAC or ATAK gear. I've got an older AGC that I like, but the lid opens opposite the way you want.

Yes, the JX3 bino holder can be used in several configurations. You can adjust the height on your chest quickly. The material is ultra quiet, and there are multiple attachment points for accessories.
 
I have the marsupial with magnets. I also added the buckle delete kit which definitely helps the case hold high and tight to your chest. I love it but it's true the magnets will mess with your phones navigation/compass if you keep your phone in the little pocket on the rear of the case. I've also found when hunting out of the saddle it's really tight in between the tether bridge, it works but it's tight. Recently I made a DIY Rick Young style bungee cord harness to give me a bit more room in between my bridge/tether and wow what a difference. I actually liked it so much the Marsupial case stayed in my pack all during rifle season and the bungee harness is so minimalist I leave it attached and it fits inside the marsupial case.
 
I've tried a couple, I have an Alaskan Guide Creations that I used a couple times that I'm going to sell. I like it, just a bit bigger than I need, but a great overall harness, with an included pocket for your rangefinder.

Muley Freak (the guys running it) do not have a great reputation. Very questionable character.

Ive been searching for the "perfect bino harness" for months which is likely why igot mixed up with the stone glacier..honest mistake... I dont have social media so when reading through the youtube comments on muley freak and people ask where they are made a d dont get a response but all the ones that mention another brand or priceget a comment I knew they were not going to come right out and say uhh we outsource for financial gains .. if there is a option to buy something made here I think its worth a few extra dollars especially if its a small business... i never looked into muley freak after the couple youtube videos of their bino harness ao dont know any background on them
 
Got the new mag free marsupial bino harness and rangefinder pouch for my birthday. Think this is the ticket for me. Need to get it broken it so it opens/closes easier but other that that I’m completely satisfied.
