Those guys sacrifice a lot to do their job and yes, it's certainly dangerous.
I really don't understand your point here.
I do not know a soul that shoots at movement or that would shoot first when startled and ask questions later.
It's aggravating to you because the GW may get shot if he's not wearing hunter orange? I'm not saying that you would shoot at movement but if I hear of a GW or anyone getting shot while in the woods and the person was mistaken for a deer, I'm not getting mad at the person who got shot. I'm getting mad at the stupid idiot that pulled the trigger in the first place!!
If I ever hear of another hunter telling a story of shooting at movement in the woods, I'm going apechit crazy chastising the idiot and if he's in my hunting club, I'll do what I can to get the stupid idiot thrown out of my club.
No the GW should not be required to wear HO when in the woods. He'll catch more poachers in camo. I know I won't be shooting at him or anybody mistaking them for a deer!
I tell ya.... people "SHOULD BE" UP IN ARMS IF A GW GETS SHOT B/C SOMEONE THINKS HE'S A DEER!!!!!! And the bottom line is that it's not the GW's fault nor the state's fault for the GW getting shot.... IT'S STILL THE PERSON'S FAULT THAT IS PULLING THE TRIGGER!!!!
Your buddy was breaking the law so the GW was doing his job.
If that is the case then why does the law require "hunters" to wear HO. Why do the "masses" need to wear it but not the GW's? why did I know you'd be on the make-the-GWs-wear-orange side??? They don't because the law dosen't require them to while on duty....
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

You are only required to wear orange if you are "Hunting". Wardens are not "Hunting". Hikers do not have to wear orange during hunting season.

Woudln't you think if you like living and you know there are people hunting with rifles you would want to wear hunters orange. No matter if you are another hunter, game warden, or just walking in the woods. I use a flash light too for my safety in the dark.

Well, I'm actually on the side of there shouldn't be a regulation to make me wear it either. I would strongly encourage it but don't think we need a law to MAKE me wear it.... Same as seat belt laws, etc. If these laws worked, then outlawing stupidity should also work.

hunter orange not required if you are in an enclosed blind on thew ground and someone dropped you of within 20" of the blind..
a license is not required of direct family hunting on family owned land... didn't know that, regarding the 1st point. so you aren't required to purchase a hunting license if you are a landowner and are hunting on your land, OR you just aren't required to have the license with you?

It is kinda crazy I can walk my 400 acre lease in a suit and tie if I want, but if I do it carrying a .308 or whatever, I have to have on orange. Just like feeding corn. It's ok to feed or have a feeder. Just don't get close to it with a gun

Owner or family don't have to buy one if hunting ONLY on family property. I think there's wording about, farm manager, overseeers of the property as well. Where's ol' 49er hidin'? Guess he has everyone on his do not call list and can't respond to anything any more.

Read the rules hunters orange is required when deer hunting. The game warden was not deer hunting. A person can squirrel hunt or hunt any other animal during deer season without hunter orange on.

It would have also been hard to write down any buck he killed on his license since he didn't have them with him......

A person can squirrel hunt or hunt any other animal during deer season without hunter orange on. You might want to check that again. Yes a person can but if he's caught by a GW, he's going to get a ticket just the same. If I'm not mistaken, hunter orange is required for deer, squirrels, rabbit, quail, and any other animal during and in areas of gun deer season. The only exception, I believe, is waterfowl. I've known several quail and rabbit hunters who have been ticketed for not wearing orange.

You are wrong. You must wear orange on all land that it open to gun deer season. The only exclusion is WMA's on bowhunting only days, State lands that only allow bowhunting, and land within city limits.

You MUST have a harvest record in your possession when hunting deer or turkey. Lifetime license or license exempt you still need the harvest record.

If that is the case then why does the law require "hunters" to wear HO. Why do the "masses" need to wear it but not the GW's? B/c deer have mostly rods and humans have mostly cones and HO doesn't alarm deer. You missed my point: When I say I don't know a soul that would shoot at movement in the woods doesn't mean that I think there aren't any hunters out there that do. Unfortunately, a few hunters do shoot at movement. I just don't "personally" know any hunters that are "that" irresponsible! I don't know any meth users, bank robbers or member of the taliban either but I know they exists. I am not a big government type person but I support seatbelt laws and HO requirements and oh, helmet laws for motorcycle riders as I should not have to pay for their healthcare if thrown from a vehicle or suffer a head injury. Regarding the poor hunter that gets accidently shot by a POS irresponsible person with a gun, the shooter should be punished to the extreme!
