Pictures of the moor/glen

Pardon me if this is off topic but I am an avid deer hunter and while I haven't gone kilted in the past I have joined a new club this year and I have planned to go kilted at least once. Are there any others that have gone huntin' in a kilt? If so, what if any advice do you have besides the obvious what's the brush like-briers etc. My new camp is a lot of pine, and some hidden oaks so brush is not really that big of a factor especially when the temp drops in October. Also since I am in Georgia it doesn't get that cold until Late nov-Mid Dec, so weather is not that big of an issue either.
I of course will post pictures when I go-but I will not bowhunt so it will be Mid Oct before pictures surface

Jock, I love those pictures-and hope to someday walk in those wonderful photos!

Never have deer hunted-I hunt Missouri and Illinois both, from late October thru January. I generally hunt from the ground, but have been in trees. General tips though-most of these stemming from September to November bird hunting, which is hunting in motion-Darn sticky seeds and burrs. Your stockings will load with them, unless you wear knee boots. Watch your hemline, too-especially with a traditional kilt material. (This also goes for knee breeks-damned if I know what kind of sticky seeds they had where they were invented, but it wasn't what we have-the old timers weren't stupid) I have spent too many hours picking off seeds from my backside pleats. When you have burrs where we are, you use cheap hose, and shave your flush dogs. The backs of your legs will literally chafe until they bleed. Where you are, scent will be an issue, especially with warmer weather. Lot of folk here use what I and some of the local hillbillies call "condom camo"-locks scent in, critters can't get a whiff of you. This isn't happening in a kilt. Blood happens-you hunt, you've been there. If you get it on your skin, or your kilt, use hydrogen peroxide. Works every time. Don't wear your dancing kilt, either-just in case. As for the rest...drafts whilst in a tree are a pain.
