Blaze Pink?

[BPturkeys]

Ok, I must admit I don't have a problem with Blaze Pink as an alternative to Blaze Orange (But I am a little concerned about you younger fellers that are still testosterone driven.)

But, I have to ask...what is the point? Is it just a "why not" moment? or are we again caving into sexism in this supposed genderless world? Has the fashion world invaded our precious world of manly-man hunters? Are the feminine(both men and women) just taking over? Are the young "huntress" having an identity problem?

Help me out here, young Nimrods.

My wife hates the color orange.  She has said she would wear pink, though.  I myself am just too conditioned to associating hunting and blaze orange.

Archery hunt, problem solved

Pink is much more visible in the woods than orange. Why shouldn't it be allowed? I don't like the government dictating the color of our clothing but if they're going to, at least allow the people some choices. The only state allowing pink that I know of is Wyoming. Are there others?

Colorado, Minnesota and Virginia.  Arkansas allows fluorescent chartreuse.

Should be mandatory for any hunters that still vote as a democrat in this state.

I like blaze orange, instantly recognizable.  Plus, I don't have to upgrade my colors for the new fall fashions.

I don't know enough about pink. Does it glow in low light like blaze orange? It always amazes me how bright blaze orange can appear in heavy fog and low light.

Well to be fair, not all of us can have the same fake tanned orange skin tone as 45.  You guys love orange.

I think it works a little better (maybe).  For my flagging tape, I find the pink a bit easier to find than the orange.  This is in heavy timber on the westside.  Just seems to stand out a little more in the moss and shadows.  But....I find my homemade blaze orange duct tape markers work better than the pink tape.  I have yet to try pink duct tape though.

If it gets more people into hunting and supporting our rights, I'm all for it.

They made it legal out here in Colorado too. I wouldn't say I'm against it, but I find myself asking why? What does it really matter if your weaing orange or pink.  Hunting isn't supposed to be about fashion or how many likes you get on facebook for looking cute while hunting. If you are truly hunting for the joy of the hunt and the love of being outdoors then why do you really care if you have to wear orange and not pink? In my opinion blaze orange has somewhat become a symbol of a hunter and I'm proud to wear it.

Since this is purely to promote women into the hunting world in Washington, I am all for it as it is a recruiting tool which we desperately need. As for blaze orange or pink for safety, remember the fundamental rules of firearms: "Know your target and what is beyond it. Don't aim at anything you are not willing to destroy/kill. Keep your finger off of your trigger until you are ready to shoot. Treat all guns as loaded at all times." If we lived by these rules then there is no need for any clothing requirements, but since there are idiots out there I am all for having the option to choose which color and if it helps recruitment of hunting then even better...and for what it's worth, the US Air Force did a study for which color shows up best in fog/low light and it is chartreuse (or slime lime as we called it back in the day) which is why airport fire trucks are chartreuse.

I know quite a few guys that use pink fletchings on thier arrows because it is the easiest color to pick out in the fall.

Its going to change the way we talk about the hunting woods in October.   I ain't never seen a pink pumpkin.   

[robodad]

The view at Lambeau Field would definitely change !!
