Stupid spell check on the phone.  Yup that.  Ringing in the ears.

Now I 'hear' where you are coming from. Joking aside, hit by an Iraqi mortar myself. That ringing will never go away, will only get worse, and is amplified so much in ultra quiet settings. I can only wear ear protection for short periods. Wearing while hunting is out of the question.

I actually where hearing aids now.  Ringing is still there but not amplified and seems like my hearing adds will cut out loud noises.  Used them during and fall turkey hunt and didn't notice the gun shot.  I would absolutely recommend hearing protection during hunting.  Especially ducking hunting.  I did duck hunt when I was a kid back in MN and never wore hearing protection having my brother or friend shooting next to me I am sure is why I have hearing issues now.

The sport ear ones I bought allow me to hear the play in a football huddle from inside my truck. Lol
That said they produce odd amplified sound and block my own elk bugle noise which makes calling difficult.
