I am going to be doing some hog hunting with high powered rifles. Walking large areas. I have a lot of hearing loss already. I need to be able to hear and then quickly and one handedly engage hearing protection for shooting. I wear brimmed hats so I am looking for something other than muffs. What are your suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hearing protection and hunting
Howard Leight impact sports are $50 with prime shipping on amazon right now. I’ve got a pit and really like them. I’m probably going to order some for the kids soon.
I overlooked the bit about brimmed hats. What about some the go behind the head? Or just ear plugs?

I really like these. https://www.amazon.com/Otto-NoizeBar...df_B07HZ3PNKX/
For a single shot with a suppressor occasionally I'll go without ear plugs, but you will still damage your ears unprotected with a suppressor and a rifle.

My advice.....don't even consider the Walkers earbuds.

These are far and away the BEST form of electronic hearing protection money can buy. Been using them for many, many years... Mine are the old analog version, but still work great. The new digital devices are very nice. I have a friend who is a dealer and does the custom molds for them if you need it.

just use something like this

hang it around your neck until you get ready to shoot
