Hey guys,
Wow...just found this sub forum on GON and I'm interested in digging in. So here's my story. I'm going deaf...i've got what's called meniere's disease which causes some balance disturbances and hearing loss. I'm 100% deaf in my right ear and losing hearing dramatically in the left. I've got hearing aids but some days it's still definitely a struggle. I'm relatively new to hunting 3 years now and i've harvested several deer and a turkey. Deer hunting is relatively ok but I find I'm relying almost exclusively on sight and "instinct" as to when an animal is approaching.
My bigger struggle is turkey hunting with the hearing loss. I can't hear the gobbles unless they're right on top of me. Anyone else struggle with this?
