I made it to my hunting blind last week and realized I didn't have hearing protection with me. Long way back to the truck so . . . and I already have on and off tinnitus in one ear so . . . .
I had a big bandana with me, one of those monster sized ones sold by Duluth. I cut off a few inches of opposing corners. Rolled those into a torpedo shape, stuffed my ears and then tied the rest of the bandana around my ears/head like an old fashioned "do rag."
Snapping my fingers next to my head told me that I'd cut down on the db level quit a bit.
Unfortunately, it turned out that day that I didn't need any hearing protection at all. No deer, no shots taken.
Life is good.
