If ever there was an epidemic in the hunting community, it’d be hearing loss. When target practice is a way of life, it’s easy to become blasé about earmuffs. When that buck is about to get over the ridge, jamming in ear plugs is the last of our worries. For those reasons, most of us will go through the rest of our lives unable to hear pheasants cackle and elk bugle as well as we should.
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Grace Sturdivant, owner of OtoPro Technologies, located in Ridgeland, MS, USA.
When I used anything I used foam ear plugs, which made it near impossible to hear the things I needed to hear. Then, more recently, I stumbled upon OtoPro Technology, based in Mississippi. I think the company is so great, that they're arguably an industry leader when it comes to hearing protection.
I recently had a chance to interview Dr. Grace Sturdivant of OtoPro, who is available for interviews to discuss the importance of hearing conservation, particularly for those that enjoy hunting and shooting.
It feels like a double whammy. As we age, we are likely
to experience some degree of hearing loss. And now,
we are learning that hearing loss may be a factor in
the risk of developing cognitive issues, even dementia.
Since communication difficulties are one of the earliest signs of dementia, audiologists are poised to make timely and appropriate referrals when necessary, which can improve long-term outcomes by allowing earlier diagnosis and management of cognitive decline.
Avid shooters, hunters, and sportsmen and women know that getting outside is one of the best ways to relieve stress. But, when it comes to your ears, these activities are anything but peaceful. In fact, they are one of the top ways to wreak havoc on your hearing.
