here in ny. we are not required to wear orange. im not a big orange fan. i do 90% of my hunting on my own land. with only a handful of trustworthy guys. when we do deer drives tho we all where orange vests for safety purposes. the reason we only wear the vest is. your arms,legs,and head all move. where as your chest and back doesnt. it gets closer or farther. but its not bending or turning. other then as a blob.just food for thought.
