[QUOTE="rlt7272, post: 877542, member: 435"] [I]By the time they shoot its too late if you don't already know they are there. [/I] My comments are from a public hunting ground position. On public ground you can bet someone is there with you and being able to hear their shot may lead to an opportunity for you. [I]While you may not notice the sound when you shoot, it still does damage to your ears. [/I] I have no doubt about that but if that is a major concern, wear plugs or protection, same as if you were at the range. [I]Hunting is not a dangerous activity. Its perfectly safe just like any other activity as long as you use some common sense. If hunting is dangerous then driving a car is certain death. [/I] Hunting is dangerous. There are numerous ways to be injured or killed. Here is a recent example [url]http://www.kfor.com/news/sns-ap-ok--hunterkilled,0,333468.story[/url] . Not sure of the actual facts but I would classifly doing something that contains the possibilty of getting shot as dangerous. [I]Thinking more and more about it I don't see any reason why they should not be allowed. As for the hearing damage, I could buy a set of Walkers Game Ears (the good ear inserts) cheaper than I could get a can and tax stamp.[/I] I completely agree, if hearing loss is the driving factor then there are cheaper, more effective ways to avoid it.
