I used to wear blaze orange.stood out like a pumpkin. Got shot at 3 different times crossing pipelines, cutbacks, open fields. Now I wear full cam including war paint. Drunks with guns can't see me. I sat in ditch while they scoped right over me. Try it. It works.

i'm thinking if the laws changed back to all orange or reflective yellow attire
the clothing section in Cabella's would take a poop kicking
on a side note that's all I will ever wear in any hunting sitsation , after getting a hat shot off my head and the top of my skull split open by a 30-30 in archery season from a status hunter I refuse to go in the bush wearing anything other then blaze orange

Hunter shot and killed in Nova Scotia this year on opening day, been mandatory to take Hunter Safety since 1978 and to wear blaze orange since 1986 in that province. Accidents happen regardless.

^^^ X's 2bro.

World needs to remember hunting training,,, look with eyes, if not clear what it is use optics.

No rifle scoping all. It only comes into play when the object is identified. Sorry if it runs away when I or other take the time to check it out, but that's part of the deal in fair game and chase.

Only ideas as each choose what works for them.

Safe harvest all.

Don
