I have the Garmin Alpha 100 and was wondering how y'all carry it? Last year I had a loop sewed on the upper left hand portion of the strap of the vest and used the belt clip that came with it. Also had it tethered to me with a retractable lanyard. Worked OK but was wondering if there might be a better way.

I carry mine hanging from a ring on the front of my vest.
Tried a retractable tether...not good. Snagged on a limb and almost lost the Alpha
Hanging from the belt did not work for me.
We all need to practice Whoa more.

Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

I hang mine from a D Loop on my vest strap and nestle it in my shell pocket to keep it secure when moving fast.

The watch is what gets looked at 95% of the time, but I still want easy, on hand access to the Garmin at time...especially if someone needs a little tickle
