I know the rule is 144"(vest, hat, etc.). Here is the question, You don't have to wear orange above 12', but my tripod is 10' to platform, seat is +16" (11'4"), also have camo around the shooting rails. So do I wear a vest (can't see the vest for the camo),a hat or nothing as far as orange goes.

If I choose to not wear camo, how critical are wardens on this issue?

Been sitting in my tripod and just got to thinking or should I say over thinking?

You are over thinking, just be sure you got some orange on when you are on the ground.

I was once on Barbour co wma. I had a hat that has raised orange letters on the front and a deer head about the size of half dollar on the bill.

Green Jeans told me "if I was hard core, I'd write your ass a ticket for that illegal hat, but I'm gonna let you slide this one time."

What a goob.

I don't need a law to tell me when to wear orange. I prefer to not get shot.

I only buy orange hunting jackets. Deer can't see orange any better than they can see green. Why do people worry so much about it.

I usually wear an orange hat and vest, as well as my boys. When we walk out of the woods we all carry flashlights. I hope we look like a bunch of lit up Christmas trees coming through the woods. I want anyone that may be in the area to know we aren't deer.

I thought the regs say you can have a logo on front of hat?


“Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.”

On the distance I like to walk to my stands:
“The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

They do say you can have a small logo. I guess small is up for debate.

I think it used to say solid, no logo years ago. This may have have been when the event happened.

If I'm in the woods, I've got my orange vest on. Comes off when I'm settled in the stand. Put it back on before I come down. Same for my kids. Way too many crazy stories to risk it otherwise.

You must be hunting this morning since I didn't see you. Looks like Gene is getting a neighbor. You hunting Larry's?? If so, Todd said he had a picture of hogs there.
