The requirements for hunter orange while bowhunting have been clarified in the online version* of the 2026-27 Hunting & Trapping Digest.
Whenever archery and firearms seasons occur at the same time, bowhunters in tree stands are encouraged to wear hunter orange, EXCEPT WHEN IT IS REQUIRED DURING THE SIX-DAY FIREARM SEASON.
See all of the new regulation changes in the digest and on our Summary of 2026-2027 Game Code Changes webpage.
