Cheers for the advice Stone. It's interesting to hear other people's opinions on 'the noise factor' when it comes to clothing.
I have been out with 2 guides, and one was fastidious about all clothing being as silent as possible, while the other wore a pair of Deerhunter over trousers that I could hear swishing as we stalked. I was successful with both guides, so who is right?
I have a great goretex jacket by Whitewater Outdoors that I wear for rough shooting and beating. I'm tempted to start wearing it for stalking, but I always thought it would make too much noise.
I think I will get a pair of the pacha trousers. I intend to rotate them with a pair of Stearns Mad Dog that I have. I'm off up to the Borders next Sunday for a few days after roe does, so I will hopefully report back my findings.
