Hey Guys, thought i would share something i came up with about 4 years ago while on a backcountry turkey hunt in the Pecos Mountains of New Mexico. I got really tired of the weighted down feeling of my binoculars on my neck. so i designed a light weight version of a Binocular Bungee.
The first pic is of the entire set up and the second pic is a close up of how it attaches to the binoculars.
The bungee is 3 mm that i purchased from the back packing section of a large outdoor store. Its about 80 inches in length and was somewhere around $3.00. the split rings were salvaged out of the garage.
I fashioned 2 loops and on each loop attached the split rings. the split rings are inturn attached to the binos with black zip ties.
Your arms slip thru each loop, like other versions i am sure you all have seen, and there you have it.
i especially like using this system when i am pre-season scouting on my mountian bike.
I weighted the bungee and split rings nad it weighs 19.69 grams (30 grams to an ounce).
Give it a try and let me know what you guys think. Jack
P.S. I hope I got the picture sizing right this time.
