What is ear candling? I will be stopping at Wally World today to see if I can find some Lipo-flavonoids.
Thanks!
God bless,Mudd

I can tell most who have responded to this thread are right handed shooters. Left ear takes the biggest beating from gun report. Back when I was young and dumb we spent a lot of time shooting clays with no hearing protection. Now at 53 I find it easier to fall asleep with some sort of "white noise" in the back ground, fan,ac etc. to drown out the ringing. The walker's game ear muffs work good but are a tad pricey. Peltor makes what they call tactical ear muffs, pretty much the same deal as walker's but for about half price. I got mine from Natchez Shooters supply.

Mine started with a .22 pistol at age 16. After two boxes of shorts, I could hardly hear anything over the ringing for about two days. It finally abated a bit, but the ringing hasn't stopped for the 45 years since. I tune it out unless something like this thread brings it back! Gee, thanks!

Yep, I've had crickets in my ears for a decade or more. Doesn't bother me but I can't understand people when there is alot of background noise.

Thanks for the info, although I think the ringing has got louder reading this!
