Bino harness suggestions

[NXTZ]

I’ve tried a bunch and marsupial is what I’ve landed on. I like the function, it’s very well made, no overly bulky and the most comfortable I’ve tried. Stone glacier sentinel is good too, but for me the marsupial edges it out. I keep my release in the side stretch pocket, and the bungee and pocket design of the sentinel makes this kinda a pain in the ass. Very functional harness and comfortable, but for me it’s not as good. (Mines in the classifieds now). I do think the marsupial carries weight better, so if you have heavy glass, extra stuff and a pistol I found the sentinel would sag more.

Do you want the pistol attached/integrated with the bino harness, or on a separate harness system? Behind the bino harness or hanging underneath? If you go behind the harness, the wings of the sentinel can get in the way, and it limits what you can put on your draw side. Can’t have my pistol and rf on my strong side, and that’s a deal breaker. If you carry the gun below the harness the wings don’t obstruct it. Conversely, the marsupial attachment “drops” the side pouch a little below the main bino compartment, and I can use the guardian plate and get my pistol grip to clear everything on the right side.

I’d suggest deciding on how you want to carry your pistol and rangefinder or other accessories, and let that help guide your choice.

I really wanted mine in blaze for some of the places I hunt, that strongly steered me toward FHF FOB. I am otherwise happy with it too though and cant really think of much I would change.

Looking for a bino harness, used a Sitka mountain harness the last few years and I liked it. Bought luepold bx4 pro guide 10x50s and they don’t fit. I need to carry binos, rangefinder and pistol. Any suggestions I’m not too familiar with what’s out there.

I am also having trouble finding an all season, all species bino harness. Still haven’t found what I like that has all the accessory options for all my gear.

After reading these threads I thought I would buy a SG, but I got my hands on an Eberlestock, and was impressed enough I bought one along with the rangefinder and side pocket. It is very comfortable, has better protection/coverage than my old Outdoor Vision. I also liked the magnet free option along with better pockets and organization. Just wore it on a hike this morning and hardly noticed it was there.
