    Good read thanks. I've definitely had my cover blown by the Hunters Element blaze neck gaiter. Deer stopping at staring at me 15m away dead still in still air in a shaded blind. Everything else was sorted, backdrop. It shouldn't have seen me. This is how it looks under weak UV light.

    Short story long, orange blaze is OK, but IMO not if it's reflecting so much UV light you might was well be a neon sign to deer. It probably looks very bright glowing yellow to them.
