WelshLamb Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 I have a ladies 'Derby Tweed' jacket, would this be acceptable with a brown polo neck lightweight shirt? What about the bottom half :look: . I have some brown skinny jeans, which I think look quite smart when I wear them with my leather dubarry boots, would this be ok? Also, what attire is 'acceptable' for picking up duties? Have been offered to go and help with picking up, and the same shoot is selling a days gun for £150, which I'm considering. Will I be laughed off the field with my cheap and cheerful Bettinsoli? :unsure: Arrghh! So many queries!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 I think we need a picture of you in your jeans and dubarry boots to be able to give you a opinion prepare yourself for even less useful answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highseas Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 firstly put a photo up what ever you chose lol our lady picker up (ok be them over 50) just were trousers with wax laggins and a tweed coat, nothing fancy it will end up muddid and bloody any how. the lady guns thou any thing from them tweed skirts.slmon pink shirt and matching tweed jacket with dubarry to breeks,v,neck sweter and tie with dubarry`s guns should look better than the beaters and as for the gun you will be fine with it. a guns a gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebarrels Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Im sure you will be fine but if your still in doubt post some pics and we can judge for ourselves :lol: I always think the tweedy skirts go well with Dubarry boots ( like the girls wear at the game fairs) :good: Better to shoot well with a Bettonsoli,than poorly with a Purdey :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-G Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 My mind did go into overdrive. A short green pleated plaid skirt is the very best thing for a lady to wear, with a green crop top and those big fluffy leg warmers. Wearing that kit would guarantee you 1,Get to walk up in front of everyone else and get the priilege of bending over picking up frequently. 2,Get you the best picker upper award of the day which also automaticaly gets you an invite for the next shoot. A beret would be considered acceptable headgear, scarf optional. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poontang Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Something along these lines would be fine Something like this wouldn't :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Brilliant! The first picture is the ideal,but no protection against thistles or brambles,and a cold wet inquisitive Labrador nose.Clarissa on the other hand,looks as if it's been a long time since she had anything inquisitive up her skirt! Met her once;she's more of a man than I'll ever be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Galore! Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 just make sure you wear clean underwear, nothing pervy it's just incase you have an accident and end up in the hossy or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pole Star Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 you lot are terrible the main things are that you are comfy warm and able to shoot without restriction Spot on leeds chimp so long as its some thing warm & able to move freely in no use a girl trying to get over a fence if she is in tight jeans ! especially if they have just got a soaking from the rain . Some thing like the skin of that rabbit you are holding would keep a lady warm on shoot day Pole Star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pole Star Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 There must be some shooting Ladies on this site who can give Welsh Lamb some good tips & I think they would be much more qualified to advise than a lot of dirty minds !
