You've decided to make a big bird watching trip. You decided to head into the mountains, and do a little climbing for an extra special weekend of bird watching. You are far from the safety of the park, and the local trails. As you are climbing up the outcropping to get closer, you feeling it slipping. There is nothing you can do, the sliding has started, but suddenly comes to a halt. You stare in bewilderment, seeing your binoculars hanging from the neck strap on the edge of a cliff. If you had only been wearing a binocular harness.
Maybe the story is a little extreme, but hopefully you get the point. A neck strap is not designed to keep your binoculars safe while you climb, and move about in more than simple ways. If you want to really see special birds you sometimes need to get out of the park. You will need to know you can keep your binoculars safely out of the way, but close at hand for watching birds when you locate them.
Putting your binoculars away in a backpack is not going to work. Birds don't wait while you unpack. They take flight and are gone before you have a chance to see them. Using a Nikon Prostaff binocular harness, or one for your Bushnell optics lets you keep your binoculars safely out of the way, but have instant access.
There is one other big issue which comes into play when you head out for a little more extreme bird watching, neck fatigue. You already feel it in the park after a full day. Your neck starts aching from carrying the binoculars on a strap. If you use a binocular harness strap your neck is not being used to carry the weight, the responsibility moves to your powerful shoulders and back. Whether you are in the park, or in the mountains, you should enjoy the entire day without strain. A bino harness will make sure it is possible.
The worst part of a neck strap is the constant swinging of your binoculars. This is troublesome enough in a park, but out on a trail it is simply unsafe. It increases the opportunities to get hung up on obstacles either damaging your binoculars or hurting yourself. A binoculars harness keeps everything out of the way, with no swinging. You will be amazed at the difference. You won't get caught watching your binoculars hanging from a cliff, waiting for the tumble. - 31499
