i would think they would see it unless its been there for awhile....wear it onyour walk in and your walk out....make sure you set your decoys up to where you wont get shot at if someone trys to shoot your decoy, and i always try to have a nice thick tree to lean on just in case......if i see orange or a ribbon, if i have never seen it, i assume there is someone there, but in reality most of the ribbons are from deer season...
