Blaze pink question

[Tyler1215]

Hello, will this bass pro hat cover the blaze orange/pink requirements for my wife to hunt antelope in wyoming?

 

[BAKPAKR]

I would check with the game warden who covers the area you will hunting.

I am betting the @Dsnow9 hat will pass.

 

[Dan-06]

Probably will pass.

Any legal advice here is as good as you pay for it. Probably counts but I would email Wyoming Game and Fish. That way you have an official answer in writing.

The regs usually have a square inch requirement.

 

[WyoCoalMiner]

Yes. Wyo does not have sq. Inch requirement

 

[Rack Daniels]

Yes. Wyo does not have sq. Inch requirement

But is that flat pink hat considered “high vis pink” in WY?

It wouldn’t work in Montana, even if Montana only required hats instead of the 400 sq in.

Yes. Don't overthink it.

Exactly. When the law stops you (her) and you say, "But Officer, the fellas on Hunttalk said it was legal".

My orange hat is about 30 years old and hardly fluorescent anymore and I have never been questioned.
As long as it is not faded, dull pink she will be ok.
You could email a GW with the pic and ask, they will get back but may take a bit.

 

[Dsnow9]

Yes! I’ve been checked a handful of times and have never had an issue.

why not go with blaze orange and not worry about it ?????????

 

[recon6036]

Wrap a strip of Orange flagging tape around it. With the Pink and Orange, you may be good to go

 

[Jwill]

Honestly, doesn't look fluorescent/blaze to me. Would err on that side, this one looks ok.

 

[Tyler1215]

Because she doesn't have any blaze orange but has that hat. Don't want to spend money if we don't have to

Couldn't find a email but I left a voice message for someone to call me back.

Wyoming Hunt Planner:​

Fluorescent orange/pink​

Big and trophy game​

No person, other than archers and crossbow hunters hunting during a special archery season or limited quota archery only Type 9 season, shall hunt any big or trophy game animal without wearing in a visible manner one or more exterior garments that shall include a hat, shirt, jacket, coat, vest or sweater of a fluorescent orange/pink color. Fluorescent orange/pink camouflage is legal. Muzzle‐loader hunters participating in limited quota muzzle‐loading seasons must meet the fluorescent orange/pink requirements.
=======================
None of the Bass Pro hat descriptions state the pink is flo pink. YMMV depending on the CO.
