I have hunted in new york my entire life and regardless of if i'm on state land or private land i always wear blaze orange. Even if the other guy is responsible hunter and takes decent shots at deer i like the fact that maybe if i am in line with his shot at some distance my blaze will catch his eye before he pulls the trigger.

Now i know that if you are in thick pines or woods you can't see blaze but oftentimes travelling up route 17 in season you could see guys in blaze on the tops of the mountains in a car moving at 70 mph.

I think that it is just common sense now to wear blaze during gun season. I wouldn't want it to turn in a pennsylvania where the rules for bow season change every other week with the turkey season , earliy muzzle loader etc.
