Robhuntandfish Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I do not. But I also hunt private land. If I was hunting public during the youth weekend I def would, or if bow hunting during gun or muzzleloader season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus during gun you just never know who is walking around. We haven't had any trespassing problems but we do hunt along property lines esp when going in and out of the woods.

cdbing Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Suffolk County requires hunters to wear 6" × 6" min. orange while bowhunting on County properties. I have never seen anyone follow that rule.If I am not bowhunting, I wear orange, but I hunt public land.Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bionic Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) Yes during crossbow, and rifle. Bow, I do not. Usually just an orange hat. 99% of time its my private land. If on public during gun, I wear an orange vest. Edited September 6, 2020 by Bionic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike103 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Bird hunting yes. Deer hunting when moving I wear a orange camo hat. In my blind no but I have orange on my blind. Years ago when the Catskills was a war zone on opening day I glowed with orange to to bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airedale Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) Always at least an orange hat but sometimes more depending on the hunt itself and where and what I am hunting. I am a believer in blaze orange as a simple precaution and the best I can tell it never caused me to unsuccessful because I had some on.

covert Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 During Southern zone gun season. Northern zone I either do or don't, I don't put much thought into it because we see so few people. Bow season I don't. I only hunt my place and the home farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landtracdeerhunter Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Bow only season, I like to display orange on the walk in and out times. Never know who might be out there waiting to release an arrow, legally or not. All it takes is once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolc123 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 (edited) I wear a camo hat when walking between spots in the Northern zone, during ML and rifle season. I switch to a camo hat upon reaching my spots, and hang the orange hat on a branch above. I go with all camo, never any orange, during crossbow season.
