ORIGINAL: Schultzy
I do take them with me bow hunting, just not often enough. The only thing I hate about bringing them with Is "where do I hang these or put these". Reason being- I don't like to move, I like things In reach. I don't want them hanging around my neck either, drives me nuts. I'm not a fan of bringing a day pack In the woods with me, just another thing to give away scent.
What I normally do Is put them In my pants pocket, there small enough but I hate the feeling of them against my leg. I'm too picky some times.[8D]
get the crooked creek harness, they invented it for your dillema schultz. I think they are 20 bucks, but are a dream for wearin binocs, the times that i do.
I agree with your points, they cant be a hinderance...but a neccessity? Idk. Ill likely wear em on every trip out once I snag a decent set, but i dont think they could be that much help in a woods setting. I can tell at first glimpse whether a buck is a shooter or not, well maybe not by this year's standards

, if it is even close i will stand early like you said.
