Being a "lower rent" American, I usually wear my LL Bean Goretex-lined hunting coat; sometimes breeks, sometimes Goretex hunting pants, also from Bean. But the Bean stuff is green rather than orange, so I more or less fit in. And I do have a grouse helmet.
No reason for you to feel inferior to the Brits when you are over there, Larry, no matter what you wear. The Brits, including Dig know darn good and well they would all be speaking German had it not been for 'Colonist' intervention during WW II.


Socialism is almost the worst.

The birds (pheasants and partridge) you see on driven shoots are very different from those you encounter on your typical preserve, or in places where the states release birds. They've been out and about since they were quite young, and especially by this time of the year are pretty elusive. And the driven grouse of which Dig speaks . . . those are all wild birds.
