Orange

In Oklahoma you will see lots of Hunter Orange. It just has OSU on it, but it does work.
 
There is a reason why they call things "safety devices". I never was real keen on seat belts until I had a head on collision by someone coming completey over the line into my lane. 70 MPH of impact took my knuckles with the steering wheel into the dash; the seat belt brused my shoulder. With out it I would have a steering wheel and colum in my chest.:eek:
As for the poor person who gets shot while in a bush by some dumb @$$, you have to wonder if they would still be alive if they had orange on. There is no vindication for the shooter, it is for personal safety as much as anything. Nuf said

I understand and agree, but I have seen hunters decide to take the orange off so they could be more stealthy. It did make a difference. It is a personal choice.
 
Haymaker,
You are correct about being much stealthier without the orange. The farmer we visit every year has often told us (when only two people) to ditch the orange. On occasion when just hunting with one other person in open grass without tree backgrounds or brushie areas, we will ditch the orange but walk very carefully “together”. That of course is not during deer season or on public.:thumbsup:
