Title: Badlandnds bino harness?
Post by: D-Rock425 on June 23, 2017, 06:35:19 AM: Anyone using the new Badlands bino harness? I looked at one yesterday thought the rangefinder pouch on the bottom was cool.

My biggest complaint and reason I changed was how bulky it is. I ended up switching to the kuiu harness which I like better. I actually might change that one out this year for the solo hunter harness that has built in rangefinder holder.

Another reason for my switch is wearing that harness early season and also scouting was a sweaty mess.
