I am not good on deer stands. Usually,
the little kid in me emerges quickly. For
decades I read books. It was a tradeoff; it
kept me in the stand and sitting still, but
no doubt some deer got by me. Some years
back, I switched to listening to recorded
books with Bluetooth electronic muffs. It’s
amazing how many more deer I have seen
and shot. But the muffs are big, heavy and
uncomfortable, and they have horrible
battery life. Now, with new ReSound hear-
ing aids I can stream the books from my
phone to my hearing aids, and I can still
hear ambient sounds, like a deer walking
in the leaves. Rather than get bored and
leaving the stand, I stay for another chap-
ter and another and another. My eyes are
always searching and my ears are listen-
ing. With the company of recorded books,
I have taken a lot of bucks that I would
never have gotten in years past.
I am sure the purists will shout from
the rooftops that I am a heretic who relies
on technology, but I am just not wired to
sit all day doing nothing but wait.
The digital revolution has delivered
wondrous things to the world and to
hunters, but none more wondrous for
a “seasoned” hunter than the ability to
hear once again the beautiful music of
nature. ah
