Firearm season requires that you wear blaze everyplace that I am aware of. I also agree with the practice. Some people will shoot at movement and I dont want to be the one to find out which ones do. So anyway I bought my son a blaze orange breakup pattern parka. Im having problems finding one this year for myself. Cabelas has 2 but I would love to have a few more available to compare against.
Why I have the subject open for discussion. Deer see shades of B/W. Why do some spend hundreds of dollars getting the newest best in camo gear? While sitting against a tree I have had a doe walk close enough that she could have stepped on my foot. To be honest it was a little scary being face to face with a doe that knew something was up but didnt know what. I think she finaly saw the steam in my breath or smelled the booze from the night before then spooked and ran. I was in a dirty abused blaze orange parka with black carhart bibs. Several other occasions I have had deer look directly at me both from the ground and while in the stand and they never noticed me. IMO this proves that color is not an issue.
