sdkidaho Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 What do you guys use, if anything? Do any of you have anything that you would highly recommend? Quote
tucker301 Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I use Silencio muffs when shooting at the range, but no protection afield. Admittedly, this is not the best way to be, but Led Zeppelin did more damage in my teens than shooting will do for the rest of my life. Quote
nodark Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I usually use some muffs but when I'm out "hunting", I use the small press in plugs that I got while I was in the Army Quote
Butch-M Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Led Zeppelin??????????? and I would have taken you for a "Deadhead." LOL Quote
mudhen Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 I got a pair of custom plugs made a few years ago at a gun show. I wear them most of the time in the field. mudhen - CA Quote

Cleric Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 About how much do those molded plugs run? Quote
sdkidaho Posted November 7, 2005 Author Posted November 7, 2005 So out in the field some custom jobbies like these might be ok? Or would you recommend going to a gun show or shoot and having them done? Looks like on those above you still have to go somewhere, and they aren't that bad of a price. ~$40. Quote
sdkidaho Posted November 7, 2005 Author Posted November 7, 2005 Ack! Scratch that. They are quite a bit more than that. Hmm... now where did I see the $40 ones? Dang it... Found it - I was looking at the "kids" model. Whoops? Cheapest pair otherwise is $150. [ 11-07-2005, 03:56 PM: Message edited by: sdkidaho ] Quote
Disgustipated Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 $70-$150 for earplugs... can i get mine with gold plating? OOH and a diamond too. Just get some el-cheapo foam plugs. Beer works wonders to silence the nagging wife........... Quote

Cleric Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 LOL... that was on target I'll have to put some away for a pair of those plugs. My little brother has a pair from way back. He's a prof musician, so he does get the use of them. However, my hobby certainly justifies the purchase. Heck, it's more of a lifestyle anyway. Quote
rotaxbruce Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I use Pro Ears all of the time even hunting. You can hear normal and still have protection. Allows you to hear the call better (rather than blowing too loud when you have ear plugs in), you can hear your partner and have normal conversation. I bought mine from Cabelas. Quote
Drundel Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 I have custom electronic plugs that run around $700 for the pair. They are great for hunting cause you can still hear and when you shoot, it cuts off the sound. I've worn them on over 500 shots this year already. (hunting, not clays) Quote
