92xj Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 pros - great product, cuts out loud noise, allows you to hear really well, very easy battery replacement and easy to find batteries to fit it. cons - expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I have used the cheaper Radian Sport ear and the only problem I had was detecting direction. I don't know how the game ear would be any different. I like the ideas of the power muffs you can adjust the volume for each ear. They too are quite pricey.

Ditto Did use the cheap ones though...they used to sell for around $15.....Only Good For Archery NO SHOTGUN OR RIFLE!!!(no audio limiter and loud noises can do serious damage) Cheap enough to use 2 so hearing the direction of noises was no issue.

bugleward Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 Game ears Hey guys: I use the digital game ears. Fantastic - I love them. I use two of them and can detect direction. I also can hear tons of elk bugles and turkey gobbles that the guys without them can't hear at all. I am a professional hunter and got them in the first place to be able to hear my clients and still not suffer hearing damage when I happen to be close to the muzzle when the gun goes off. I ended up loving them because I can hear so well. I have heard folks say they are too noisy in the wind. Wheat they don't realize is the darn things are made to amplify that frequency range on purpose. Also if you really think about it and concentrate... your ears hear the wind noise too, most just don't realize it until they use a Game ear or something like it. I hate having muffs on my head but I am sure if you can stand them they are a very good item. Oh ya and by the way -- they are each adjustable so you can balance the sound to your own ears. Just remember to turn them off when you turn the key on the truck. The fasten seat belt beeper will drive you nuts with them on. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterwebb Posted December 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 thanks bugle that is what i need to hear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 I've got a set of the muffs, but they get in the way when drawing my bow so I can't use them. I wish I could afford a pair, because you need the small ear-piece if you want to use them for bow-hunting. I'm half deaf..LOL..so I go by my keen eyesight. It's never failed me yet (Lord willing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
