I usually find I need to cough or sneeze at the quietest times in the woods. This morning I sneezed only to start a deer snorting. Has anyone tried the "Cough Silencer"? What is your opinion of the device? I am also interested in other ways to remain quiet during a cough or sneeze. Thank You.
I sneeze into a my big coat I bring along, if not I try to sneeze with my mouth clinched shut, its not nearly as loud. Ohio Bill has the cough silencer and I'll let him comment on that.

I always thought that Cough Silencer was a joke. Not to offend any users. :cool: For a sneez I just pinch my nostrils together and for a cough I just cough into my jacket or armpit.

I thought it was a joke also, but my wife bought me one and it does really work. I had 2 does about 35 yrds away and they didnt even flintch when i used it.

The cough silencer is weak!! If you really have to cough hard it dont work at all....If you have to clear the throat its ok,,,i guess
I was sneezing up a storm tonite, I about blew my head off my body, by sneezing with my mouth shut, woulda been nice to have had one around to try out.

OK try this for stopping a sneeze. Press your bottom lip hard against against the top of your bottom row of teeth with your trigger finger. I know it sounds stupid and its not 100 percent but it works most of the time for me.

the thing with the silencer is getting a good seal around w/your mouth. Then its pretty quiet
