Why email WDFW then, there is nothin to be gained unless you are lookin for bonus pts.  You are not contacting everyone that watched the video and tellin them that it is a law?

It could be an August bear hunt also. Not required for that.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

 :peep: I don't know if i should just go crawl under a rock! I wanted to post the video because these guys did put in the effort. Its the exact same way i love to hunt. I removed the email thing because there is no reason to catch this much flack. Really. :stirthepot:

Not wearing hunting orange isn't even a criminal offense, its a civil infraction (just like a parking ticket). No need to email WDFW. Most officers wouldn't even write a ticket for it.

They mentioned the date and intention.

If you don't follow all the regs (or at least the obvious ones), and then put video all over the internet--then you can basically expect someone to eventually question you.

Assuming the guy emailed WDFW to gain points doesn't make any sense. They're not poaching. Points are for turning in a poacher once they get convicted. Not for emailed WDFW about some dude you don't know who's not wearing orange on an internet video. I agree, probably not something I would choose to do(the email) but I doubt he's doing it to gain points.

 No biggie on the orange. I'm now wondering about the use of the two way radios used to lead the one hunter in on the deer to make the kill. Is that legal? :dunno:

Since when is taking radios and using them to keep tabs on eachother and the game illegal? Come on!
Is orange even required in the early buck hunts? Honestly if you can't tell the difference between a human and a buck cause they aren't orange you shouldn't shoot!
Do you have a trash bag in your vehicle? I emailed the state patrol you criminal you! Lol

Yes orange is required for any deer or elk modern firearm hunt.

Since this thread has to do with wearing orange, I thought I might ask:

Why is there hunters that "scope" other hunters that are wearing the required orange then? I know I read some threads on here saying that people got scoped by others.

That's one thing that I don't get. :dunno:

(Not trying to start anything or hijack this thread.)
