Helmet when hunting?
This very interesting discussion,out of the box

[Salty]

I wear a half helmet when I ride my motorcycle when I'm hunting I do not have to take it off to shoot.

I have the helmet sitting on the top of the Kolpin case in this picture.

This. Got my first quad a few years back wasn't big on the helmet idea for putting and hunting but went to Canadian tire and bought a biker bro beany flat black helmut 50 bucks, done. Doesn't impede hearing or vision and its nice and light. Put a thin wool toque under it when its cold and you're nice and warm. Having said that I did forget it yesterday and went on about a 30 km run De-ac road no traffic I took it real easy.

I carry a half helmet with me always, but hardly ever wear it. Came across a police officer once one spring while out riding around on an FSR. They were looking into a call about gunshots fired. Never said anything about no helmet. Was pulled over by a game warden 2 years ago while moose hunting. He checked my papers and rifles and wished me good luck and a nice day, no talk of no helmet.
