Bino Case opinions?

I use the Alaska guide creations for my 15s. Lots of pockets and it attaches to my pack. I also use the marsupial full closure with my 10x ELs. It does great with keeping dust out.
 
I've been using an FHF for years and I really like it. I don't see myself changing harnesses for quite some time. If I did I'd probably try the Marsupial. That being said, I had an AGC for a couple years before I bought the FHF and at the time I really liked it but wanted to try something different. When I got the FHF I was impressed immediately, the modularity is superior, and it's much more compact and fits a lot closer to my chest.

I am headed out on a west Texas Mule deer/aoudad/elk hunt this month and was wondering everyone's opinion on bino case, harness or regular neck strap. 90% of our hunting is done from a ranger unless we need to stalk. In years past I used the neck strap but it starts rubbing on the neck after 6 days straight of hunting and glassing but it makes it easy to remove binos to prepare for a shot. What's everyone else prefer and maybe some equipment suggestions?

I have an FHF harness, holds the Zeiss 12x45T Conquests and a Leica rangefinder. No fuss piece of gear and has made many hunts in W Texas, Old and New Mexico. Easy to adjust and access my binos quickly and quietly.

What case you use for your 15x56? Looking for a case for my Swarovski I just got. I run my badlands and love it for 12x50. Any pictures of your case

I use the Marsupial size large, enclosed sides with magnetic sides. I can take photos tonight when I get back home.

Dang! You're sure ready!
 
I use to Alps Outdoorz bino harness and rangefinder harness. When in the ranger, can let them hang on the straps but when stalking can put them in the holster. Same for rangefinder. Cheap too

Marsupial gear holds my Leica geovids beautifully. My badlands are ok! They work but I would definitely consider marsupial as the better option! Stays tight and controlled to the body! Love them

I've tried many different binos and rangefinders (Bushnell, Nikon, Vortex, Leupold, Swarovski) and harnesses (Bino-Sock, Leupold, Badlands, Sitka, Kuiu) over 30 years and believe I found the perfect setup, this season, that I'm sticking with from here on out. I got the Vortex Fury HD 10x42 binos w/built in rangerfinder, which were slick... no more switching back and forth between binos and rangefinder trying to find your target. The image is sharp, have decent light gathering at dusk and dawn, and the rangefinder was spot on (compared to the Leupold I just sold). They are heavy, but that was compensated, in my mind, by not having to carry 2 optics and switch back and forth between them, and with the harness, I didn't even notice the weight. I got Kuiu's new Pro harness (2nd version). It keeps the weight off your neck, the straps are thin so there was no problem putting a pack on over the harness, it keeps the binos tight to your chest, the lid folds away from you so it doesn't get in the way of getting the binos in and out, the lid holds with adjustable elastic so there are no loud snaps or magnets, it's easy to open and close with one hand, you can leave the lid open and, since the case is semi-rigid, the binos slide in and out easily with one hand, there are removable tethers to keep the binos from falling to the ground, but can be easily unsnapped to remove and share binos, and there are elastic side pouches for wind checker, calls, etc and I added the pocket on the bottom for flashlight, knife, firestarter, etc. For the first time ever, I found this setup to work easily and flawlessly without having to think about it or putz around with it.... it's like it's not even there.

I also have the badlands bino harness but it got stolen lost my Vortex 12x50 uhd , my range finder and the case locally my Sig p220 wasn't in it. I did have a problem with the long binoculars always opening the bottom closure.
