The AGC bino pouches are great, thrilled they are being offered here! I used the old style for the last 4+ years, and got the new version this year as a gift. A great way to keep your optics close at hand, but unattached while actually glossing. The chest pouch has enough space for my havelon, lense cleaner, license/tags, range finder and extra rounds. Here are a few photos:

Right on!!! I really like mine...used the old version for 5 years and it still looked and worked great, but the new version made from cordura is more better. Gave my friends our old ones and upgraded to these ones.....the large is plenty big enough to fit my beanie and 12X50 binos in the main pouch....which I like :)

are they setup to accommodate rangefinder? or do they make a separate rangefinder pouch? Ive always wish someone made a bino harness with a detachable rangefinder pouch on the left or right side of the case.

I put the rangefinder in the zippered front pocket on the front of the pouch...works well there until I begin a stalk and then I take it out and put it around my neck.

I picked one of these from Jarret last summer and love it. I keep a point and shoot camera in the front pocket and a lense brush in the side. I really like that you don't have to attach your binos to the harness. Makes it a lot easier to take your binos out, mount them to your tripod and then get up and walk away if you choose.

something i think he should improve on are the buckles and or webbing material that slide through the buckles. perhaps the two do not just mate well togather to stay in place. at least on mine they slip and lose position from when i first put it on due to moving through the woods and mountains. i have to adjust as i move witch becomes anoying. other than that it is far bettter than others i have used and like the design of it.

Well, I'll have to chime in and say that these are great pouches. I've had mine for years and yes, Jaret is a great guy to deal with. I also recently got the bowhunter version which is just a main pouch with two small side stretchy pockets where I have a havalon on one side and a lighter on the opposite side. It has an elastic cord for the top lid which just goes around a hook.
I highly recommend them.

I talked to Jarret earlier this week, and he sent me a compact size to try and make sure it was right for me. He was awesome to deal with and I cant wait to get my hands on the pack!!

Does the regular size one get in the way when drawing a compound bow? Love the idea of having my binos, rangefinder, compass, map, headlamp, and Havalon in one spot

I have Vortex Crossfire II 10x42 binos with the vortex tripod post attached so it sticks out under the body of the binos. Does the main compartment have any padding in it or does anybody else run the tripod post with this set up? Just don't want the post digging into my chest. Currently have a S4 setup that has a "stiff" back between my chest and the post.

I have one of these too, a far better design than others out there. About the only thing i think would improve it a bit, and i e-mailed Jarret about it, is a small plastic hook at the bottom to hang a bow from while glassing, similar to the Badlands.

the lid strap does occasionally come lose on mine too.

I am yet to find a perfect rangefinder holder/tether/pouch also, used an S4 Evo, range snap, and a couple others.
