I use a Fox F40 whistle.
What kind of whistles do you use in order to avoid "early" hearing damages?
Thanks for your thoughts

Bingo!
As I started reading I was thnking "I bet he uses a God-awful Fox 40".
Switch to an Acme Thunderer and I bet your problems will disappear.
Fox 40 would be fine if you work at a huge stadium where there is lots of noise but for a "normal" game, it's overkill.
Anybody who steps on a field with me with a Fox 40 will be pulling it out of their ***.
