How are they when driving, and just around the house?

I haven't tried the Axil but the Walker's rope might be what you're looking for. I use them exclusively and have for a few years. They have hearing enhancement / protection controls on one side and bluetooth controls on the other. I can put on some low music or podcast while walking out or just messing around and then pause it and turn up the ambient sound when it's game time. I love them. I found the smaller buds fall out too much and are hard to manage with gloves, but the rope buds stay around my neck or in my gaiter even if they fall out. Bonus is since they're a few years old you should be able to get a good price on them.

The Shadows are working well for me around the house. In fact my wife has only had to repeat herself once in two days which is 100% improvement for her. :tung:

I can hear  tv at 3/4 less volume. I watch some you tube turkey videos and with push of button go between video and ambient noise pretty quick.

Depending on how big your house is I loose Bluetooth if I go from. Y chair down the hall to the bathroom or out in the driveway while my device is in house. A warning of Bluetooth will come on and off. So I just turn my iPad Bluetooth off when I am out side.

We have about 10 -15 mph wind today. They pick up the wind straight on but seem to filter it.

Went to use the Shadow max pro ear buds today.

And the right bud would not charge. Did a factory reset, no change. Did some research and one troubleshooting hint was to clean the connections in the charge case and on the buds with alcohol.

I did that and put in case to charge 30 minutes later is was working fine.

Well during turkey hunting the charging case for The Shadow MaxPro stop charging. Emailed Caldwell , no response.
Called them today. Told me they had some issues with the cases and would send me a whole new set.

Seems like they are still having issues with the charging cases with reviews from October. Seems like an easy fix. It is crazy how all over the place reviews are for various, similar, items from different companies.

I have the Axil XCOR.  Not bad haven't had them out in the woods yet.  Does not amplify the wind as much as my Walker Silencers 2.0BT.  Those are screaming in the wind and I have tintinutis which makes it worse.  I wore the Axils with the window down in my truck and it killed the wind but could talk to my wife plane as day.  The thing that people do wrong with the axil is they send them with the foam syle plugs and silicone.  The silicone is for listening to music. They do not block out sound. Use the ear plug type foam ones that come with it.  My biggest thing is when I am calling how loud am I calling and everything I have tried deadens the calls.
