Every single year you hear about someone in Idaho being shot while wearing their brown carhartts during elk season. To me those guys are almost as much a moron as the guy who shot them...not as much but almost! :twocents:

ok so i have been thinking about it for a while...I also have been scoped several times, my father, and bro have...friends have also....i cant stop some moron from pointing there rifle at me....but agree that being on the safer side and wearing orange is a very good thing. Yah some guy might be scoping me which ide really rather not happen, but hopefully since he sees me wearing my big pumpkin suit he wont have his finger on the trigger...Were if im not wearing camo and some over zelious hunter decideds to see whats coming out off the bush and sees me as a potential target does have his finger on the trigger...NOT OK....Orange saves, and in my book ill wear it when i dont have to in the bush....and i do.
but some notes to think about for those who have issues with all this......
Deer are colorblind....So they dont know your wearing orange....
I might be wrong but the idea of wearing camo is so that it breaks up your body pattern against whats behind or around you...so you blend in....the different patterns for different outdoor situations, seasons, etc...blah, blah, blah.
Soooooo wearing orange with a break up pattern could solve the issue for those that wear orange and dont want to. And you can think of this as saving your life and still giving yourself and advantage against most the people out there that just wear a big pumpkin suit and stick out....I dont know though...my opinion i guess...but ill recommend to anyone to be smart and wear there orange.
