The Ready Ranger™ is a magnetic landing pad that keeps your rangefinder (or phone) always at the ready. It is part of the Ultimate Tree Gear Collection by JAKT GEAR named Best New Accessory at the 2024 Archery Trade Association Show. It comes with an adhesive-backed steel plate that mounts to the side of your rangefinder (or the back of your phone) and magnetically pairs with the Ready Ranger to secure your electronic device when not in use. The super-strong neodymium magnet is encased in a nylon webbing pouch that contains a neoprene padding layer to keep everything silent when connecting to your device.
Ready Ranger has multiple attachment accessories to enable attachment to any vertical or horizontal webbing on your gear. A shoulder strap webbing adapter (sold separately) is available for gear not equipped with factory-installed shoulder webbing.
A Better Tether™ adjustable-length tether system is included to protect you from dropping your expensive electronics.
For rangefinders:
Mount it to your shoulder strap to quickly and quietly range your target with minimal motion and no fumbling to remove it from and re-insert it back into a pouch/pocket.
For phones:
Keep your phone easily accessible and never worry about dropping it from a tree again (A phone tether connector to insert between your phone and case is included)
