When You are out Sighting in Your Gun are You Wearing Hearing Protection? If Not, You Could be Ruining One of Your Most Important Hunting Senses!
This week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast Downrigger Dale talks to Audiologist Dr Nora Martin and Hearing Instrument Specialist Alyssa Keith, from Vibrant Hearing, about hearing protection for hunters! This is an important podcast that EVERY hunter should listen to…while you still can that is!

Good hearing allows you to locate game and is often one of the first senses that alerts us to where that game is and what direction it is traveling. In fact, one of the things you will learn when you listen to this week’s podcast is there are now several different types of hearing protection available now days. One of them is the Hunter Passive, these very cool ear plugs that allows for awareness of game and tracking dog sounds, however when you fire a shot, they will instantly block the sound that is harmful to your ears!
