I have a set of 10x50 diamondbacks that I use for rifle elk. Only issue is they are pretty heavy. Looking at getting a lighter set for archery this year. Let me know what has worked for you guys. Best wishes..

don’t really care about brand

Combined with binoc harness Alaska Guide Chest.
or if going light & archery, a Rick Young Outdoors bino harness/strap system.

RYO is my favorite bino harness when carrying a larger pack. It is less bulky and reduces bulky feeling when you're carrying multi-day pack for backcountry. I feel more restricted when drawing bow when AGC harness and padded pack straps are going over my shoulders at same time.

I’d love to have me some swaros but they are out of my budget. I’d like to keep it under $350. Again not looking for the best just something decent that’s not terribly heavy. The diamondbacks are almost 2lbs. I have the kuiu harness as well that I’m not in love with but will have to work until I can upgrade. Thanks for the replies.

i noticed cabelas has the diamondback hp 10x42 and they are suppose to weigh 21 oz. any experience with these, I know it’s a long shot?

Best lightweight binos for the money are the maven b3.
