samburstalker Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 I've been thru old post, I like the s4 lockdown, where can I buy them locally or online. Seems like cabelas is overseas. And of course I need it before the gatta trip What else do you guys use and recomend if I've overlooked a harness, needs to hug body and easy to access Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsp Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 use a crooked horn,suits my needs but maybe not the best available,but still handy.only short fall ,if you have the harness adjusted to make easy lifting to the eye the binos swing out a bit if you lean over,say looking at tracks ect,but not a big problem.more tension on the sraps make it a difficult hold to the eye if your glassing for a while. I should have got the bino cover as well,little sticks[very little ] small leaves and dirt fall on the lense if you are sneaking thick stuff and don't have lense covers on.the cover is like a shower cap and fits over the whole bino keeping dirt leaves and water off the lense's,must get one one day.cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the standard bino harness that's popular these days. It works well to keep them from swinging but looking through them is a struggle with the elastics. So these look alright!

Just buy it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AltonaHunter Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Pussies,just stick with the neck strap like real men and harden up Haha. Only reason I use one is to keep moisture off the lenses and ready to use. I bet you spend half your hunting day cleaning your lenses in the wet, I know I used to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDTV Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 anyone know a brand that's not Elastic but rather similar to Backpack straps? keen to get me hands on one of them. WL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltonaHunter Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 anyone know a brand that's not Elastic but rather similar to Backpack straps?keen to get me hands on one of them.WLThe s4 have proper shoulder straps, theyre just not padded. Im guessing they designed them like that to not interfere if you used them with a backpack.The only elestic on them is between the forward part of the shoulder strap to where it meets the bino holder.

samburstalker Posted April 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Got the binos and harness today, the harness seems pretty good, leaning over seems like it comes off the chest couple of inches, really easy to get binos to eye level and put back into protective cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
