Texas Outfitter

The best pheasant, quail and chukar hunting in Texas

Do you need to wear florescent orange while pheasant hunting?

I’m going hunting in Montana in a couple of weeks and I was wondering if you are required to wear florescent orange while hunting as you do when hunting elk or moose.

In most jurisdictions, yes.

And it’s a really good idea, even if it isn’t required, assuming you don’t want some half-drunk city dweller mistaking you for a game bird. They are entirely capable of that.

    Upland game hunting does indeed require blaze orange. Frankly, even if it didnt you still should wear it. Amazingly, humans look a lot like game when viewed through cheap scopes on cheap rifles held by dumb people consuming large quantities of cheap beer.

    Do you? Probably not. Do you wanna look like Dick Cheney’s hunting buddy if you don’t is the question.

    Safety first.

    yes, you need to wear it at all times except during the special bow season,, all other times require at least 400 square inches of coverage by florescent orange(hunter’s orange) above the waist, even bow hunting during the rifle season.
