56 year old farmer here, rock guitar player, avid hunter and shooter, ex lineman, heavy equipment operator, and loud bikes. I actually have tinnitus in one ear from hunting as a kid mostly. Growing up in my day, ear plugs and sunblock weren't the happening thing lol. I actually have very good ears except for the tinnitus in the one ear. And started protecting them near 20 years ago. I had some nice attenuated fitted ear plugs made for the loud things I enjoy!
