    So who makes it?
    I don't need padded yoke systems, longer tether or any bino/call attachments.

    Getting tired of my harness taking up the most weight and space in my pack, hate wearing it in as my pack doesn't ride like I would like with it on. The padded shoulder yokes seem to crush insulation causing cold spots. Currently using the g-tac air but have opted for the one freebie that came with my muddy stand. Just wish it had QD leg loops.
    Any suggestions?

    I like my MUDDY harness.

    Get a rock climbing harness like the Black Diamond Vario speed harness and call it a day. I will never go back to a four point harness.

    I've looked at rock climbing harnesses but how does the attachment workout while bow hunting? And how do you secure to the tree?

    My wife uses the muddy and while it's smaller than mine it won't fit in a cargo pocket.

    I have a few different brands. I like the Gorilla G-Tac the best.

    Not going to find a harness much smaller or light weight than the Muddy.
