Lilred,

I have a similar story. I was hunting the shotgun season and I was in my stand all day. It was getting late and I saw a bush moving. I thought that a deer must be on the other side of the bush eating off of it to make it move that much. I didn't own binos at the time, so I looked through the shotgun/sluggun scope. I kept looking and looking, and I couldn't find a deer anywhere. Finally, I noticed the flourescent fletching from the arrows that the idiot was using. The guy was still hunting on the ground with a bow during rifle season and he was wearing a ghillie suit. That pretty much scared me because I had a live round in the gun while I was looking at him. Mind you, I was hunting in some thick stuff, so he didn't look like a bush in the middle of a field. The gun didn't go off, so there was no accident, but you can bet I would have been able to see him clearly if he was wearing blaze orange.
