c'mon guys, the blaze orange thing is meant to deter the moron who will shoot at anything moving. Hopefully he'll see the color and think, "gee maybe that's not a deer." It's not as though we have been taught not to shoot at something wearing orange. For myself, I don't shoot unless I have clearly identified the target as something I'm hunting. I don't really need blaze orange/pink to keep me from shooting at you.
My wife, who knows this kind of stuff, says that the pink will stand out, to a deer, slightly less than the orange, but the difference is negligible. A color that does stand out for a deer is blue, so best to leave the denim overalls at home.

actually ,here in idaho, it is not a law to wear either orange or pink. we still believe the hunter should be responsible to make up his own mind on what they wish to do to.
seems to me if any laws were to be needed, it would be for punishing the fool who " accidently" shoots a man ,thinking they are an animal. oh , wait we already have those.
it never ceases to amaze me that such things even need to be discussed.

Its official, blaze pink in Wisconsin is the law. We now have another option for "safety".
This afternoon, Gov. Walker signed into law a bill allowing hunters to wear blaze pink. Here is a link to an article.

I hear you. I was just updating a thread, with new information.
Not all the land that a governmental agency owns is useful to them or the public in a meaningful way. Be it for hunting, fishing or another outdoor use. So it is sold off, hopefully to a tax paying entity.

Now the first day of deer season can be Gay Day in Wisconsin.
I really doubt it will go over very well with men and I can't see the clothing manufacturers gearing up real quickly to make pink hunting clothing.

I think this was another example of feel good legislation on the part of do gooder Democrats. That is who began this stunt, a do gooder democrat. Who, till this point, didn't have anything to point to as an accomplishment.

I think the "almighty dollar" will prevail and the marketers will be ready to make new bucks off the women next season. Happened w/guns. Question is how willing the women will be to keep it traditional.
