BTW you can get ticketed for covering your orange with a backpack, unless it's also orange. Hopefully you will have a nice guy check you out, and just get a warning. But don't bet on it.
Me I use a simple orange vest, nothing fancy, and put all my pocket stuff in my coat. The only thing I insist on in a vest, is that it's silent.
That's what I use. Of course, I don't have as much fashion sense as most of the more feminine "hunters" on this site. My freezer will have deer meat in it this winter, though. Haha!Walmart has a nice zippered mossy oak vest for like $20
There is a minimum square centimetre requirement for blaze in Ontario for big game hunters. It used to be 100sqcm, I think. All I know now is a blaze vest and hat are minimums. I don't think there is any requirerment for small game unless you are hunting small game in during an open big game season.
