Default RE: hunter orange

I've hunted white tails since 1962. And a bunch to say the least. My experience is that the colors do matter. Avoid light, bright stuff. Avoid anything that is "noisey" because you will move ... eventually. No way to stay rock still hour after hour after hour.Any woodsy color works. Soft toned dark greens, dark graysand earth browns are super.Combining those colors up in some sort, about any sort, of "cammo" pattern is super. Solid orange, broken orange .... I have not noticed any more "busting" than any other dress.In my opinion, it is scent first by far ... then movement .... with noise a close second ... and color a distant third.If hunter orange was the culprit, I'd have been pretty much skunked for decades because I've worn it as a safety precaution since I was 12 (nearly 50 years ago)... and I still wear it every time out,required by law or not.
