the Bino-Bivy Harness System from TruGlo is a great way to carry your binoculars with maximum protection while keeping them accessible and instantly available, and it works just as well with rangefinders and digital cameras. It is the best system we have seen yet to give bowhunters fast access to binoculars while keeping them securely out of the way when they're not needed.
The Bino-Bivy has a simple magnetic seal on the cover flap that can be opened without making the ripping sound that you (and every animal within earshot)associates with Velcro closures. The magnet is soundless while allowing fast and convenient deployment of binos or other accessories while protecting expensive optics from the dirt and abuse associated with using precision equipment in the field.
Don't purchase this item if you are buying the TruGlo Tru-Brite binoculars listed above as the complete Bino-Bivy system is included with all TruGlo binos. Naturally, the binoculars on the photo are there for illustrative purposes only and are not included in the price.
One of the handiest pieces of kit you can have in the field is a carrier, tether or holder for your binoculars and range finder. It is essential to keep both these items secure and quick to access at all times, but without a proper tether, they are always in the way or out of action in your backpack. Even lightweight binos or a range finder can feel like they weigh three kilos after wearing them around your neck for a few hours, and they tend to flop around and get in the way when you aren't using them. Here are a few suggestions from NZAP to help keep this expensive kit out of the way but accessible.
The Bino Toter from Vista is a great way to carry your binos or digital camera while you are in the field or on the water. This simple and lightweight binocular harness takes all the weight of your binos, or camera off your neck and distributes it evenly on your shoulders where it won't cause fatigue even on the longest day in the bush. The Bino Toter also keeps your expensive binoculars safe and secure while keeping them always handy and out of the way of your bowstring, plus it is easy to use and inexpensive. This is a must-have item for every bowhunter who uses binoculars or carries a camera.
