Hey in ON,be seen or dead,your choice. JITC
Yes, there is. Under ANSI standard Z535.1–1998:
Munsell notation 5.0YR (Hue) 6.0/15 (Value/Chroma)
CIE Data: x=0.5510 y=0.4214 Y%=30.05
Hex triplet #FF6600
RGBB (r, g, b) (255, 102, 0)
HSV (h, s, v) (24°, 100%, 100%)
Did that all by memory too
As long as it's bright orange and not red, or horribly faded, you will be fine.
This is a dead horse.
This is a dead horse being beaten.
Everytime this comes up about the orange clothing for hunting, this is how I feel.
Stop spoiling the fun

I hunt private land, I still have been almost run over by yahoo's in their trucks chasing deer, I have been scoped on our property etc...wearing orange seems crappy until you are walking a cut on your property and realize that city F*cker on the next field is checking you out with his scope...
Hunting rifle season in ON without orange - I would not go out...out west I hunted for years and was never nervous

LMAO! Super7:awesome: coming to a future near you in the form of mandatory orange underpants while hunting I'm sure. Just give them time!
The basis of Democracy is personal responsibility, and when you get right down to it; trust! Kruschev stood at a podium, banging his shoe against it, railing that the east would destroy the west from the inside out. He was a prophetic man. If you guys have problems with "yahoos" who can't tell the difference between a deer and a human, and who shoot at their target first, and identify it properly later, then just pass a law that states that, if you do it, the other hunter has the right to return fire; If you get shot in the process, then it was your own fault. Ballistics should be able to tell who fired first at the trial. It would put a stop to that nonsense toot-sweet I assure you, and the Government could get out of the business of "protecting" you from the camouflage you "choose" to wear.
My whole point is that this isn't something the State should be concerned with. It should be handled by the laws of commons sense, and enforced by sociological norms, so that "trust" and "personal responsibility" could remain the core tenants, and primary defenders of Democracy. It seems small, but small things are how we ended up where we are now. This is just one step back in the right direction if you ask me. You simply do not, in a Democracy, ask the majority to take corrective action for the actions of the minority. It's not all you guys complying that need to be herded in the right direction. You're supposed to be free men. A few of the violators need to catch a deer rifle round in the butt, and word would get out; make no doubt! Problem solved!

I dont get what the big deal about wearing hunter orange is. Our party shoots moose every year regardless of the goofy looking colour....
Clearly you are an expert at dogging in the dense bush of an Ontario deer hunt. Of that there is obviously no dispute.
However, I know from my time living and hunting in various states in the US that there are plenty of US states that also mandate Blaze orange for hunters. Perhaps you could take your pearls of wisdom and share them on their hunting forums. I'm sure they'd appreciate it (even more than we do). No really, please do! By the way. The term "toot-sweet", erm well......oh never mind.
Cheese & Crackers ORB! It sounds like you'd like to "whoop a*s behind the wood shed" with me! If a man wanted you to know how many cattle he had, he'd tell ya'! I'm not the jerk-water-dan you'd have me be. It just ain't that simple. Gettin' a little big for your britches ain't cha'?

Thank you for allowing me to remain in your hemisphere....

I understand the laws of common sense. It's the other idiots I worry about. The odds of me shooting myself are slim to none. The odds of some retard shooting me is a little higher. If you feel so safe about not wearing orange, I invite you to hunt with my group without your orange on public land. It will only take an hour or so for you to change your mind. My personal safety comes first, PERIOD!!
If you're so against "big brother", stop paying your taxes, renewing your insurance and plates and don't put quarters in the meters, see what that gets you. The law is the law, period. If you don't like the laws, challenge them in court or STFU.

If you seen my posts in the last couple years you know that we were as much Orange as possible.... And trust me we have no problem shooting deer!

This is a funny thread. Always is.
You're missing the point, both of them.
#1 It woudl be pointless if he did go to the American boards, they would agree with him that this is an example of gov't meddling. He is quite right on his point.
What I always find fascinating about this topic (everytime it comes up) is how many Ontarioites fully agree with the law and think it is dangerous to hunt without orange. To that the point that........
#2 You get so pissy about it. I think it is great fun watching you guys get pissy about this.
Where's my popcorn smilie?
