[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2354788, member: 68875"] For me, it is 3-fold. 1. No hearing protection required while hunting. No ringing ears after the shot, can communicate in a whisper before the shot, can hear the "whop" of a hit. 2. Game (either target animal or bystander animals) have no clue someone is shooting if they are more than 100 yards away, so no spooking them. Have had bystander animals stand around after the shot and the target animal goes down. Usually, the "whop" on impact is louder to the ears than the shot. 3. Other HUNTERS don't hear you shoot if they are more than 100 yards away. To me, this is a big bonus in some pockets I hunt. [/QUOTE]
