Any time firearms of any kind are legal for deer, elk, and I guess bear in your area/county/zone all season. The only hunters that are exempt are waterfowl or that's my understanding. This also includes the youth only seasons.
If you’re hunting on public ground youd be better off wearing orange anyways, Extra large Wally World vest doesn’t cost that much and orange beanie And can go right over any kind of thick coat that you want to wear
