    If you’re hunting on your own you could consider taking off the suppressor when you’re in the Bush.

    And take ear protection, plus some extra as well.

    Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

    why??? usually in the bush its a single or at most 3 shots...noise is ..different in the bush,its like it soaks some of it up compared to out in open.

    No, noise is the same anywhere, its not like you are hiding your head behind a tree when you fire. It is your choice to ruin you ears, don't need to encourage others
