Hearing protection while hunting

[Rimbaud]

I have Otto electronic ear protection and it was a waste of money. They work, but I’ve had problems with them holding the charge. I just used them on a bear hunt and they crapped out even though they were fully charged. The best ear pro I have found is the Sordin Supremes. I have a pair of Walker electronic muffs, too, and they are close second along with Howard Leight.

I have sound gear and have had esp in the past. They work well and are comfortable but I’ve yet to find one that doesn’t drive me nuts on a windy day.

I wish I had been adequately warned in my younger years. Not only dominate hearing loss but the constant ringing is really bad.

I agree with Sabre, I can't wear muffs when shooting as the muffs hit the stock and push them away from my ear. I think I will see if sound gear has a return/refund policy if you do not like them, if they do I might try them

I’ve been using axil…they work well.

2nd on Axil. I have both the wired set and wireless. They work well for me but do pick up wind noise. I have some Howard Light's I use at the bench but they just get in the way alot. When I really fon't want to hear I put foam plugs in and muffs on top. I do this at the range with others shooting when I am unaware of their timing.

I use 3M peltor electronic muff: https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/v000253819/
especially with a beanie/winter

or in-ear electronic : https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/v100765196/

works great.

Had Walkers in-ear, but quality was not good they lasted 2 months only

I’ve been using a pair of these for four or five years. Also work well on flights to have a nap or listen to your iPad/iphone without a lot of background noise.

CALIBER BT

CALIBER is a Bluetooth shooting earbud that packs a big punch in a little package. This electronic ear pro is completely dust, sweat, and waterproof and can run up to 13 hours without needing to be recharged. The completely cordless design allows you to move freely while Tactical Sound Control™...

I have three pairs of the Axil ?GS’. One for me and each of my boys purchased on sale. I find them less comfortable and the noise cancelling less effective than the isotunes.

I’ve got a pair of inexpensive Howard Leight Impact in my range bag that I wear with earplugs at the range. Shockingly good for the price.

I use the walkers razor electronic muffin in the duck blind. They are great. Amplify sounds and shut off when you shoot. Fairly cheap too
