How do you carry your Garmin Alpha 300?

[fatbacks]

Like the title says, how do you carry your Garmin Alpha 300? It's bulky so not ideal for stashing in your pocket. Anyone have a holster or something they have found and like for it for in the field? How about how you carry it when around the house and may be needed for corrections?

TIA

Carabiner clip hooked to my bird vest. Lock the screen when you're hunting.

I use the holster clip thing that came with it and clip that to my shoulder strap on my left (non-shooting) shoulder.
It's easy to hear alerts and pretty easy to grab with my right hand.

Only had my 300 for a month or so but that’s exactly how I’ve been running mine. I’m going to add a little cordage from my vest to the 300 just as a safety measure for if it ever slips out of the clip.

Alpha 200, but I assume it is the same. When hunting zip tie loop through the slot at the bottom and connected around my belt w a small caribiner, screen locked and facing upward, use the buttons for corrections and toggle between dogs. Do yourself a favor and add something reflective--I use a length of nite ize cord--and stick waterproof label with your name and phone number somewhere so you have a better chance to get it back if you lose it. It stinks, but this is an expensive piece of gear it is surprisingly easy to lose. I also use a Garmin watch with it and have the 200i so other ways to find it if lost in the field. I don't use it around the house much so can't help there.

I use a lanyard. There are also a few options here: https://www.dusupply.com/dog-tracki...-systems/garmin-alpha-astro-mounts-cases.html
I have thought about a kydex holster but never bothered to spend the money.

I also have a clip from aziak that goes on my bino harness. https://aziak.com/products/garmin-device-backpack-mount

Just look around and figure out your use case.

I use mine hunting bear and coyotes. I also use the inreach out west with my bino harness.

I have a leather carrier with a carabiner that came with my 200. For the cost of shipping you can have it. I think the 300 would fit it.

I used 2-3 times and did not like it. I now just carry my 200 in a vest pocket with a lanyard clipped to a loop, so i don't loose it.
