DH Needs Blaze Orange Hunting Clothes ASAP Help!!

[Antonia]

DH is going to West Virginia for 5 days around Thanksgiving and according to his friend he needs blaze orange hunting clothes - not just the green/brown camouflage type that hunters here in South Carolina wear.

We have searched all the stores around here and there are none to be found.

He has searched the internet some, but has not found anything satisfactory.

Do any of you live in West Virginia or a state that sells blaze orange hunting clothes? If so, send us a phone number or internet link to a store in your area. Or any ex-hunters, send us your clothes!! LOL

They use blaze orange in Wisconsin. You can get it at Walmart, Fleet Farm, Etc. Not sure if you can order it online or not. Good luck finding something.

He could probably stop at a Wal-mart when he gets to West Virginia. If that is the law there, then most places should sell that color.

Antonia,

Go to www.cabelas.com click on "Clothing-Hunting" about halfway down the page on the righ side is a category for Blaze Orange.

I remembered seeing their catalog at my Uncle's house, he's a big hunter. Glad I pay attention to the little things!

K-mart. As soon as he crosses the border into WV.

Wal-mart or Gander Mountain all sell them around here.

Send him up to TN. We wear that color all the time. LOL!

Hunters in SC wear blaze orange. Camo is for turkey hunters, because turkeys see colors. Deer hunters wear orange. This is why there is no overlap between deer season and turkey season. On state Wildlife Management Area land, hunters are required to wear orange.

Yes, in South Carolina they do wear some orange - usually a vest and/or hat in blaze orange. However, where DH is going to hunt, a deer hunter has to have 60 % (or according to the website 400 square inches????) of blaze orange. I've never seen a South Carolina hunter in that much orange. You never see orange jackets, bibs, etc. in orange around here. But thanks for the info.


400 square inches - what is that equivalent to? Sounds like a lot!
