Favorite Orange?
« on: August 03, 2008, 08:02:00 AM »
I'll be hitting up the hunting stores soon in search of some new Blaze Orange gear, so I'm curious to find out what you guys use and love. I need to get a hat and a vest to meet the requirements here in PA. What do you guys prefer?

Either Predator fall orange,, or Mossy orange, work for me. Not into the High Definitions orange just yet, but maybe next year.

In many states camo blaze orange is illegal. It has to be a solid 500sq in, front and back. I look for quite material over anything else. Deer aren't startled by blaze orange anyway. Your silhouette or movement is more detrimental in hunting situation.

I haven't read my hunting digest yet this year, but in PA the only time solid orange was required was while hunting in Turkey season and groundhog hunting. Other times orange camo was ok.

I have an orange reversible knit hat and orange camo vest I wear with the overlap with fall muzzleloader. But honestly I usually stay out of the woods that week.

In Mississippi it's 500 square inches unbroken for deer gun seasons. I had a favorite orange camo suit that I retired when the law changed. Bowhunters have to follow the rules of the season that's in. No orange hat requirement here.

Well I started off thinking "now this is my kind of thread." I love oranges. Citrus Aurantia, the sour variety makes a killer sour orange pie. Killed many a buck coming in to eat wild sweet oranges, blah,blah. BUT I can't really help ya on the blaze orange camo. Thought I was going to get to be the expert for a change..
