:yeah: I agree but i would hate for some sucker to watch the video, know when the seasons are and not know that orange is required. Nope didnt tell mommy and daddy because they could careless :chuckle:

My opinion is that orange should be a personal choice. It amazes me that the state can actually tell us what color our clothing has to be. There are other highly visible colors that would be just as safe, or safer, than orange. Why can't we wear those colors? I would never turn someone in for not wearing orange.
:yeah:
Orange isn't required in Idaho and they do just fine. I still wear my orange when I hunt there though. :dunno:

we all know it is a question of safety, BUT they are busting their humps in the high country hunting where they may or may not see another hunter the whole trip. (not saying it is right) but if they don't have it on oh well. but to email game dept to try to bust someone (for hunter orange of all things) to gain points for yourself than that is BS, especially where they are. it isn't like they are shooting from truck driving down the road or busting fences on private property to gain access.. (THAT WOULD BE A FOR SURE CALL IT IN) but ORANGE?
i love cruising thru the posts and seeing all the great pics but this get out of hand.. people want to point fingers and try to find a problem or a law that has been broken to explain why someone tagged or caught something and was successful.
HELL IT ISN'T LIKE THEY HAD A FLASHLIGHT ON THEIR BOW!!! :chuckle: :chuckle:

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.

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
Post by: jackelope on April 21, 2011, 08:25:09 PM
Since when is taking radios and using them to keep tabs on eachother and the game illegal? Come on!

Yes orange is required for any deer or elk modern firearm hunt.
Post by: piledup on April 21, 2011, 08:31:12 PM
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:

I dont even bring my rifle up until I am sure what I am looking at. I however have had shots go over my head(at an animal) and shots ricochette VERY close to me. All of which they said they did not see me....and I was even wearing orange. I am very aware of my surroundings. It is hard to see someone all camo'd up sitting behind a stump at a couple hundred yards away. Its all about safety! For everyone! Big deal! Wear the orange!
And yes I do have a garbage bag in my car at all times.
Post by: steelhead13 on April 21, 2011, 08:34:17 PM
Geez, how did we hunt for hundreds of years before orange?:yeah:Orange should be a personal choice.. But if the WDFW says we have to wear it i guess we have to. But no one likes a nark for the little things. Its almost like the seat belt law, if you don't want to wear a seat belt you shouldn't have to.
Post by: phishisgroovin on April 21, 2011, 08:36:15 PM
who cares if they dont have orange on. its their own descision. the law is stupid.
if i wanted to wear clothes like the new red green show i should be able to. Worked fine for a hundred years.

Statistically, hunting is very safe and part of that is due to hunter orange.
Whenever anyone is shot, every hunter gets a black eye in the eyes of the public.

I hate the fact that I have to wear this bright orange crap, mayebe it will save my life one day but I highly doubt it. Might get me killed if anything, to the guy who scoped me a few years back, I hope you're head still hurts. :chuckle: :chuckle:

But Bob, why orange? Why can't we have choices? How about fluorescent green or yellow? Or hot pink? :yike:I don't know this for a fact, but I believe there have been several studies that indicate orange is safer than any other color for hunters. You don't see too many highway workers wearing pink, do you? :chuckle:

Some people need to lighten up. Please. Will these guys get fined? probably not. Why because its inconsequential. So why report it? I dont know. But i am getting them a lot more hits. And everyones feedback seems to be positive... at least toward them :chuckle:

Yea those 3inch eye guards were hard to see! They spotted the thing and stalked it. Not like it was a crack shot deal! Some people need to get away from the comp and lace up their boots for a little while!!!
Not the first buck, watch the 5th video at the end. No eyeguards on that one bro.

Hunter orange is for *censored*IRS - 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.

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.

Gotta agree ... the video documentary of their hunt would rank with the best! What an awesome hunt!
:yeah: I would much rather watch a hard earned hunt like that than any of the hunting shows on tv. Those guys busted their butt and tagged some nice deer. Congrats to them. Not many have what it takes to pull off a hunt like that.

Jeez... seriously, not wearing hunter orange :dunno: Is this the site where the guys jump in and whine when a guy don't have his hunter orange on in his "after the kill" pic too?
It's threads like these that help me understand how Obama got elected... :bdid: :yeah:
:yeah:
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
