A few years ago I would never wear orange if I didn't have to by law.  Not anymore.  There are too many people hunting these days that don't have much common sense.  If there is any kind of hunting season open I've got orange on even when I'm just hiking or scouting.  Maybe I'm getting paranoid in my old age, especially of 13 year old bear hunters...

First I agree on wearing hunter orange for safety in the woods, the issue of our game laws is they are written in most cases by out of work lawyers who have to keep things complicated to keep employed. That said I think it is wise To be seen and hopefully not shot at. I have been shot at twice while wearing the orange once an accident and one time we will never know as they are still running somewhere in CA!

A few weeks back I was scouting, not a gun showing... unless you count a pellet gun. I was wearing hunter orange, A couple hikers walked by... man did I get dirty looks........

Yep, I agree with Mossy, I go for, "better safe than sorry."
