An important part of hunting for my is my hearing. I like to listen so intensely that even in the coldest hunts, I pull my beanie off of my ears just to give me a slight hearing advantage versus my ears being covered. I listen for the faintest rustle of leaves or the shuffle of deer hooves and sometimes the crunching of acorns. Loosing my hearing, or reducing my ability to pick up the smallest sounds would depreciate my time in the woods. Because of this, I recommend some type of hearing protection when you are sighting in your rifle, running a chainsaw and even cutting your grass. All those constant loud rumbles or hums will chip away at your ability to pick up those little signs that trigger you to get ready for a shot.
