Down here in Florida the hunters are mostly after deer and their technique is usually either stand hunting, pretty safe for others and pretty much exclusively dawn and dusk operations, or dog hunting, not so safe. The later is done by letting dogs go on one side of a piece of land and sitting on the other waiting in ambush for the dogs to chase the deer across the road. The waiting is often accompanied by the drinking great quantities of beer and much lying.

Better to stay out of the woods entirely when such hunters are around but if you insist on going out wearing a buttload of day-glow orange, making human noises, bells or whistles, and loudly singing dirty limericks, might help.

A forest service naturalist I know, who has to be out during hunting season, has mounted a pair of fiberglass poles with day-glow orange flags at the top, like you see on some bikes, on his backpack. He also wears a day-glow orange vest, like you see on road crews. He also carries a .38 revolver and has been known to fire it into the air to let people know he is both human and willing to shoot back if shot at.
