I think Mark Baker had the best answer.MY 2 cents.

if you are getting busted, maybe you could have changed your aproach to the shot or maybe you couldnt and have been busted anyway,  some one is going to have to test the colors on all game, i dont know how you would go about it but i would find it interesting,
     Personaly i love all white and wraps on black bears in low light,  nothing like seeing white disapear in black.  I dont know about deer but i hut blacktails in the snow and you can see your hit but not your miss and finding it sucks if you miss,  I think pink would be great for snow hunting,  dark probably the worst.  Im shure moving white does stand out in a dark background.  just have to decide on what is aceptable and find a happy medium.

White is a natural color in the woods. rabbits, squirrels, deer, birds, mushrooms and trees all have white so why would white spook deer.

White and chartruese feathers glow like a beacon under a blacklight. I understand that this is due to the UV and that animals are sensitive to it or see it readily. I have used both for the last few years. I checked mine with a black light after reading a post by Ron Laclair about "glowing feathers" a few months ago and they do indeed look like a neon sign. I'm going to use a fletch cover next year just in case.
