I wouldn't turn them in but it is still a rule.  They can agree with it or disagree with it but they should still comply.  I worry about the person that is willing to break a rule because they disagree with it or because they consider it minor.  Where does it end?  I see no problem with pointing it out.  I am no saint by any means and could be considered a hypocrit on this when it comes to other issues like speeding for example but not fish and game laws.

5 years ago if you showed up to a germany hunt with hunter orange on  you would be laughed out of there. But these days its mandatory. I dont think hunters are shot any less often. but everyone feels warm and cozy about it now. lol.

I wouldnt go out of my way to turn a guy in as he would never be caught without getting his information. If i happened to hike near the guy i would say something polite just as i would say something polite to a gamey about it if i happened to hike near one.

If the whole safety thing is the big issue,,, should the government tell girls to not dress in sexy clothing while in public because they might be raped?

Hunter orange is for *censored*ies - with rifles!!!!! OK, just kidding. But seriously, archers are the only true hunters. I think we all know that. It's common knowledge. A Fact. OK, I'm ready for the barrage, and maybe a stray bullet or two. I can duck. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Looks like those stud hunters pulled their YouTube videos ... it's a damn shame.

If they are from WA they are probably on this site and witnessed the remarks and chaos created in this thread regarding their hunter orange.. Good effort on their behalf for putting in the time and miles to get in the backcountry and bivy out - nicely done!  Takes some determination to hunt that way and many aren't willing to put forth that type of effort.  Should they have been wearing orange, yes, but at least they got it done and connected on a couple bucks on a hard earned hunt.

It takes a lot of effort to hunt the wilderness, it was cool to see that they were successful. Congrats guys! Post the videos and dot say where you were next time.

Nice Video.. Been a long time scene i have done that beautiful country.. Good Memories. Some people need to start worrying about themselves.. They where just not wearing the orange. If something happened bad it would have been there fault. They weren't poaching or any thing like that.. BIG FREAKING DEAL

I'm damn near pissed off that they had to pull their videos from our flack.  It took me 2.5 hours to load up those videos where I'm at and i missed half of one because they got yanked. They are the best damn videos i've seen as far as real guys getting out and doing some real hunting in one of the most beautiful places in the world as far as i'm concerned. When they panned accross the mountains it almost makes me cry honestly. I cant beleive that some nit picking now prevents me from watching it all over again. Not to mention they drug along the cameraman so they could bring us that footage and devoted that amazing video series to their buddy who died in the parwan province a little way from where i'm at.
Its sad guys, real sad. I hope they post them up again.
