Turkey season starts here in April, but people are out hunting all year long, for such things as raccoon, coyote, opossom, and swamp hog, so it may be a good idea to keep hunter orange on all year long.

If I ever encountered some hunter who made that sort of statement, I would have a long and painful discussion with him about game recognition and what a telescopic sight on a rifle is for (aiming the rifle at something you wish to shoot, not spotting and identification).

If I see a hunter pointing a gun at me, I will take great offense and return the favor, usually after taking cover. You do not use the sights of a firearm to spot game, and anyone who does is not only unethical, but also breaking the law should they end up pointing that muzzle at a person without cause. They would have no joy if they pointed a firearm at a game warden/LEO in the field.
