groach1234 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Speak to the person who asked you on the day what he thinks, he is going to know more about the circumstances of the day, better that way than assuming and feeling either over or under dressed George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stiv24 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I agree with groach, thats your safest bet. Having said that if I was taking a guest to a driven or walked up day and he was dressed in camo when i went to collect him, he'd still be standing on the kerb now.

felly100 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 It's alot easier to take a tie off in the shoot carpark than try and find one.Camo on an invite is probably a no-no in my view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rattzzz Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 i'm not having my seeland stuff until christmas, but i may be going on a large walked up shoot on saturday, is it ok to wear my deerhunter camo clothes or not lowlander Hi i shot last saturday on a well to do pheasant shoot.I will admit i was a bit nervouse.I turned up clean and presentable with my cameo hat and coat.All the others had range rovers and tweeds,however they gave me respect and eased my fears i had a brilliant day and met some brilliant lads.Always remember you have all got the same intrests so making conversation is easier than you think.I hope you have a good day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

covlocks Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Chord trousers, a plain waxed jacket and decent boots will always get you by - a set of camo's will be seriously frowned on - and most private shoots will give you the red card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
