General season you got to wear it at all times. If I'm wrong, somebody correct me since I don't hunt public, except for turkey season.

I have first hand knowledge and costly advice.Always wear your blaze orange even during turkey season.I have been shot once and experienced some really insane %^^&&& on 30 years of public land hunting.

You must wear Orange on Pub Land anytime there is a gun season. such as now with turkey and squirrel and youth season. if it was BOW ONLY and no guns allowed you do not have to wear orange.

My understanding is it is only required during a firearms season. I was only making a suggestion to wear during bow as it coincided with the youth weekend. Never hurts to be safe.

It is required during firearm season where I hunt, but they do not say deer firearm season. Dove season has been going on since Sept 1 so to me that means I must wear orange. It only helps you to wear orange. It doesn't hurt anything.

If I'm wrong, somebody correct me since I don't hunt public, except for turkey season. hunted public land in san angelo last year during general season and the sheriff said orange wasnt required but it was recommended..then again it was the sheriff, maybe the game warden has something else to say..
Nothin teaches you to be a better shot than tracking the ones you barely hit..
