I wear it under also. I don't want a chance of anything getting in the way during a shot.

Under I don't like the buckles or straps on the outside to interfere with the bowstring. I also like it under so it does not get in the way of my hand warmer pockets. I do wear the bottom section of the harness over my outer layer of pants.
Overall it's more comfortable for me.
I just need to remember to pull the teather out when I put my jacket on.

For sure the top section is under. For the bottom section it depends on how much room I have in the pants or layers I'm wearing. My lone wolf harness has hooks, etc. right at the waistline so it bulks up a little for buttoning pants.... If it fits under I wear it under, if I'm bulked up for cold weather I put the lower section on the outside.... Hope it makes sense.

I've been wearing my new one over. For the past few years I had the Primos bowhunter vest that I wore over the top part. But I got the new summit sop that has pockets on the side

Usually over my hooded Asbell shirt/jac and under my windbreaker vest. I like my hood usable and need my pockets to keep my hands warm. :D
Really glad to hear all of you are wearing a harness.

Wear mine under the top outer layer but make sure the back connecting strap is out, so it is easy to get to.

Over my bibs, and under my outer most coat, keeps buckles and straps out of the way and as stated above keep the teather out where its easy to get to.

Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try! Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

Under, even if it is warm I will wear a light weight shirt over the harness. I dont like the shoulder straps; just seems like they get in my way!

Under my outer layers so that I can add or remove as needed.

A word of caution. I put mine on tonight under my outer coat. It has a high collar. I zipped it all the way up and hung from my lifeline. Man. It felt like it was choking me. Big time. Tried the same thing on the outside and it was fine. Bill

I put my harness on when I leave my truck, so it goes on over whatever I wear for the walk in. Everything else goes on over the harness. So the harness is usually under something.

I started wearing a rock climbing harness & no longer have to worry about anything getting in the way.
