RE: Has anyone ever noticed.....
Kid,
I did notice a hunt that took place in IL....with the same thing! Can't recall who it was, knight and hale I believe.
They were in the gun season, with 1 or the other, ie a hat or vest, but not both, and I think the vest was blaze camo....which as we in IL know, blaze camo won't count!
So unless canned hunts have different rules.....yes I did notice some of that.
