I am need of ear buds since mine crapped out.  I need them for all use. Phone calls shooting, podcasts etc.
Raycon and Axl that I have seen advertised on FB.

What do you like and or do you know of a good review site.

I have used a pair of 3m ear muffs from Costco that have great battery but calls are only ok, they get hot while working and pretty bulky.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I can give a big fat no reccomendation on the walkers razor bone conducting headphones.

I could NOT hear elk bugles, even though my hunting pardner could.  I couldn't hear them until about 150-200 yards, which I can do without a hearing aid.

They don't offer protection though.

Walkers went to China

I have an old set of muffs from their early days thats great, still works.  Makes a chipmuck sound like a herd of stampeding wilderbeasts. 

New ones suck bad.

This is what I was really curious about. I would love enhanced hearing on windless days as well as for my bowhunting.

Just looked at some gun guy reviews of All and they are garbage... perhaps that is why they advertise so much

I contacted axil about bone conducting hearing enhancing headphones due to conductive hearing loss, and they told me the ear buds were on sale
