Georgia hunters can wear fluorescent pink

Georgia hunters and people accompanying them can now wear daylight fluorescent pink instead of orange to meet existing clothing rules. Each person still needs at least 500 square inches of this material as outer clothing above the waist. A head covering can count toward that total. The rule applies to deer and feral hog hunting during firearms deer season. For bear hunting, it applies during firearms and primitive weapons seasons.
