There are tons of gear and supplies related to shooting and hunting — but one of the most important pieces is often overlooked:
Hearing protection. 🧏‍♂️🔫

Take it from someone who didn’t follow this advice — I’ve permanently damaged my hearing. It’s easy to prevent and even easier to forget.

I personally like hearing protection that still lets me hear what’s going on around me. Even better if it has Bluetooth so I can listen to music or one of my own videos while plinking at the range.

Here are a few options I recommend — available on Amazon:
