The title alone may answer your question.

Not really, if the law state you have to wear it, you better wear it. If there is no state law requiring it to be worn and you don't choose to wear it, well frankly your taking your life into your own hands. Im sure you don't trust everyone out in the woods, and Im also sure if you hunt private property you can not guarantee at all times that there isn't someone on that property either with permission or without. I sure wouldn't trust others not to shoot first and ask questions later.
You can come up with a million scenarios to this, and as you know, you will never come up with enough answers to make everyone happy.
Do what you like, orange or no orange, lets just hope the knuckle head 200 yards away can see you behind the deer he is getting ready to shoot, and then holds his shot.
What to do with the folks hiking or walking the dog, or like they do around here, the mountain bikers, I have no idea. I would like to see the state property closed to biking and hiking during the regular deer season. I don't really know, there is no real good answer for this debate.
