Bino Harness – Protect Your Binoculars From A Wild Ride

March 7th, 2010 Bart Icles No comments

Guys, you know exactly how you are. You jump on your ATV to head out for a day of hunting, and you go a little fast. You hit a few extra bumps here and there. The next thing you know your binoculars are flying off the seat. Or maybe they just swung around your neck for third time on their strap. You might even experience the worst case, and they swing up at just the wrong time and tangle into the branch you ducked under on the trail. You could keep those binoculars and your neck safe with a bino harness.

A binocular harness completely changes the way you carry your binoculars. They are no longer swinging around, and uncomfortable. Your binoculars are exactly in the right place. Up front, ready for action, and out of the way. The worst place for your binoculars is stashed away in a bag. How many times have you been heading down the trail and saw activity. We all know animals don’t wait for you to unpack, and prepare. It is look now, or forever miss the opportunity.

It doesn’t matter whether you purchased Nikon Binoculars, Bushnell, or another brand, a harness is very low cost. You can grab a Nikon Prostaff binocular harness for under $25. The great thing it is not limited to working with only one brand, or even just binoculars. Hook up your camera to the binocular harness strap, and you can carry them wildly down the trail with you. During those off seasons, you can always hunt and document with a camera. Learning more about your favorite hunting areas will improve your next hunting season.

One of the biggest reason most hunters put away the binoculars is because they are uncomfortable. This is especially true when you are zipping around on the ATV. The swinging binoculars become a pain in the neck. If the binoculars are held firmly in place, but easily accessible, you would keep them on. Your binoculars harness will keep them from swinging, plus gets the weight off your neck. You’ll be spreading the weight across more points of your body, making the binoculars feel light, and comfortable.

The important thing is the speed of access. When they are right at your finger tips you are going to have more opportunities to use your binoculars, and get a better understanding of animal movements on your hunting grounds. You bought binoculars to use, not to sit in storage on the back of the ATV, put them where they belong, front and center.

Using A Binocular Harness Prevents Damage To Your Binoculars

March 5th, 2010 Bart Icles No comments

You are busy walking through the woods, searching out unique birds. You hear their calls, and hear noise in the trees. You kneel down to get a better angle around the tree, and your binoculars swing out and smack the tree. It wasn’t loud, but you hear that familiar sound of birds taking flight, and then silence. If you had been using a binocular harness, your binoculars would have stayed in place, silently.

It is not just the birds disappearing you should be worried about. It is very easy to damage a pair of binoculars out in the field when they swing around on your neck. Especially when you start wandering around in the trees and brush trying to spot an elusive bird. Your binoculars can easily swing out and brush a stick, a thorn, or other obstruction and suddenly have a nasty scratch across the lens. When you’re wearing a binoculars harness, there is no swinging, the binoculars are safe against your chest, out of the way.

If you are like most bird watchers, you have two essential pieces of equipment, your binoculars and your camera. Both can be protected with the use of a binocular harness strap. It is a dual purpose strap and works great for either one. You can find straps customized for your Bushnell binoculars, or a Nikon Prostaff binocular harness. When you want to switch between your binoculars and camera, you need a safe fast way to get your binoculars out of the way. The easiest way is with the bino harness.

You should also think about the comfort and safety of your neck. You have probably experienced the neck fatigue from a full day of bird watching. The binoculars start to weigh on your neck, and the muscles tense up. A binocular harness keeps the weight on your shoulders and back, parts of your body which carry weight easily. You will finish the day of watching birds feeling great, no need to rub your neck all the way home.

It is amazing you don’t see more bird watchers using a binoculars harness. They are safer, more comfortable, and protect your investment over the cheap neck strap which came with your binoculars. The small investment will increase your enjoyment of bird watching. Often, a high quality binocular harness costs less than a new book.

February 16th, 2010 Bart Icles No comments

If you own a set of Nikon Prostaff Binoculars, or a Prostaff rangefinder, you have made a substantial investment. The Nikon Prostaff waterproof binoculars are great for a hunter, avoiding moisture penetrating the housing and fogging your view. The other big hazard, and pain in use, to your Nikon investment is probably right around your neck, the strap. Once you have tried a good Nikon Prostaff binocular harness, you’ll wonder why you waited so long.

The binocular harness accomplishes two major benefits in improving your binocular use. Your binoculars are now safely held against your chest. This is really important when you bend over frequently. A standard binocular strap is going to let them swing right down in front of you. Obscuring your view as you try to pick something up off the ground.

As you walk down the path, you are constantly dealing with the swinging, flopping binoculars. It can be very annoying feeling them bouncing around from side to side. With a bino harness, they will stay almost motionless against your chest, out of the way, but ready for action. Many outdoorsmen will remove their binoculars while walking and put them in a backpack instead of dealing with them. Obviously, they don’t do you much good in the backpack. You need your binoculars ready for action. You never know when something in the distance is going to catch your attention, and you will want a closer look.

A binoculars harness is very multi-purpose. You can use it for your binoculars, rangefinder, or camera. When you are scouting out an area, before the season opens, it is a great idea to take some pictures of hot areas of action. It will help you find them quicker when the season begins. Cameras are every bit as annoying wearing around your neck as the binoculars.

The binocular harness strap will keep any of your optical gear right where you want it, up front, out of the way, and secure.

Do You Know What Makes A Binoculars Harness Superior To A Strap?

February 7th, 2010 Bart Icles No comments

Most high quality Bushnell or Nikon Binoculars come bundled with a perfectly working strap. It hangs around your neck just fine. It works great in the store and in your home. Then you head out to the duck blinds, the field, or your deer stand, it suddenly becomes apparent a neck strap is not so great. The pain in your neck might start you wondering about a binoculars harness.

First you feel the constant annoying weight on the back of your neck. While your binoculars are not very heavy, our necks were not really designed for carrying. Sometimes with the back and forth motion of walking the strap even begins to rub, feeling a little abrasive. It might cross your mind a bino harness might feel a little better.

As you’re walking to your deer stand you hear a thump, thump, thump sound. It is not an animal, it is your binoculars bouncing off your chest with every step. Imagine how much more comfortable the hike would be with a Bushnell, or Nikon Prostaff binocular harness strap. No more thumping, just quiet comfortable walking down the trail.

Once you reach the deer stand, you being to climb. The binoculars swing over to the side, and on the way back the strap gently wraps itself around a couple twigs. You need to stop and untangle before the next step u[ the ladder. With your bino harness you would already be safely sitting up in the stand, getting things arranged.

It is even worse if you are duck hunting. You step up to your blind along the side of the water. You bend over low to step through an opening, and look down in horror as you just dipped the lenses into the water. If your binoculars were secure against your chest, they would be safe and dry, chalk up one more reason you’d enjoy a binocular harness.

You could of course just put the binoculars in your back before you start your trek. They will be dry and safe all the way to your hunting location. Of course, you just missed spotting the deer on the horizon, or the ducks in flight, but your binoculars are safe. With a binoculars harness they would be safe, and you could be using them instantly.

It is very obvious, to get the maximum use from your binoculars a neck strap does not make the grade. A binocular harness is the best way to enjoy your day of hunting and protect your valuable optics investment.

How a Binocular Harness Can Help

February 5th, 2010 Bart Icles No comments

You have seen that one guy who never heads out without his binocular harness. He is the odd looking guy, since everyone else wears their binoculars on a neck strap. Have you stopped to wonder why he tolerates all the strange looks? Maybe because the harness really works.

A cheap set of binoculars can be pretty light, but a quality pair of binoculars are hefty. They have better housings, higher grade optics, heavy duty adjustments. Then when you start adding in binoculars with electronics for stabilization, or a built-in camera, you are talking some serious weight. Some of these high end binoculars will tip the scales at over 5 pounds. While this does not sound very heavy, after a full day of hunting with it pulling down on your neck it will seem heavy.

With all this weight focused on your neck, you will feel soreness in both your neck and upper back. You might attribute it to carrying all your other gear around for the day, but the binoculars hanging around your neck played a major role. When you use a binoculars harness the weight moves down onto your shoulders and your back. You have a more even distribution of the weight. You will experience less muscle fatigue and soreness.

The other factor which prompts many hunters to switch to a binocular harness strap is the constant swinging of the binoculars. Every step, every movement, gets them in motion. You grab for your gun, and they start swinging. You swing your shotgun to your shoulder for a shot, and the binoculars swing with it. It is not only annoying, it can be unsafe. If you would watch the guy with his Nikon binoculars securely strapped on with his Nikon Prostaff binocular harness you would see no swing. His binoculars stay in place. He swings his shotgun with confidence, while still wearing his binoculars.

As you walk down the field to pick up your birds, you’ll notice he just quickly leans over, picks up the bird, and stores it away. You lean over, move your swinging binoculars out of the way, pick up your bird, move the binoculars, store the bird away.

Next time you are getting ready to head out hunting remember, it is not the guy with the bino harness who is odd. The rest of you just haven’t learned the lessons he did. Of course, since you now know how effective a binocular harness can be, he might not be the only one with a harness.

Bird Watching is a Pain in the Neck Without a Binocular Harness

February 5th, 2010 Bart Icles No comments

It is the right season of the year. You know they are migrating through your area. You also know you may be out in the countryside all day trying to spot those elusive migratory birds. As you hike around the area, you realize the sport you love is becoming a real pain in the neck. Your binoculars strap has been rubbing, and pulling on your neck all day long. The trip is still worth it. It is not the fault of the binoculars or your techniques, it all due to the poor design of the strap. Your neck would feel great if you were using a binocular harness.

A binoculars harness takes the weight off your neck and distributes it to your shoulders and back. Parts of your body which were designed to bear weight. The binoculars will no longer be swinging back and forth, since they are being supported efficiently with four points of support. Your hike will be easier and more comfortable with a bino harness.

Many birdwatchers will put the binoculars back in their case when they don’t have an immediate need to use them. The biggest threat most times is caused by the strap. It feels insecure because the binoculars are always bumping and swinging around. It is insecure, because it would be easy to swing them into a branch and end up with a scratched or broken lens. Using a binocular harness strap keeps your optics nearly motionless, pulled up against your body. They won’t be swinging around and getting bumped.

Something a birdwatcher needs to consider is the motion and sound from swinging binoculars. Birds can be fidgety. They are watching and listening for any signs of a predator. Your swinging binoculars could help signal an escape response, and suddenly your hopes of observation are gone. You can minimize the movement of your Nikon binoculars with a good quality Nikon Prostaff binocular harness. Just adjust the harness properly and you’ll have very little extra movement while you position yourself for viewing.

If you extend your birdwatching into photography, your binoculars harness can double as a very effective harness for your camera. It will be held just as securely, with minimal motion. When you are serious about birdwatching you want a harness to make your day more enjoyable and fun. Having your binoculars or camera always ready is going to increase your opportunity for great sightings.
