Got a date on Saturday night, first one for nearly 2 years, so really nervous. Just wondered what the in thing was to talk about on a date these days? I have pictures of all the roe does's I shot last season to show her. She is a shepherd's daughter and likes the outdoors, so hope have lots in common.

Who pays on a first date nowadays? I thought if I got the drinks we could half the food? Does that sound about right??

Should I wear my good shirt, or will that seem a bit keen? She normally dresses really smart as at last year's dance after the clay shoot, she had on a really sexy ankle bracelet, all I can say is WOW!

Any advice gratefully received & wish me luck guys!


I really hope you are taking the ****. Show her your dead deer pictures! Are you mad? Farmers daughter or not, I would avoid them.

As for the good shirt, most certainly. Let her see you have made an effort but don't go OTT and wear a tux if your going to the local hotel for a casual bar meal.

You say she dresses smart. Think she will be comfortable if shes smart and you wear a boiler suit.

You be the proper gent when it comes to the drinks and a meal. You offer to pay. She might insist on splitting the bill. If she does you can always suggest that she can pick up the tab next time! You might get another date out of it.

Mention her ankle bracelet from last years dance, she will be flattered you noticed and remembered.

Pay her compliments about what she wore at that dance but don't come across as a stalker or weirdo.

Don't go overboard with dutch courage to calm your nerves. Stick to one or two.
 
Ask her straight: "Do you fancy a f**k?"

If she reacts in a negative fashion, she was probably never really that into you anyway.

Just saying like....
 
If she asks you about your interests and you tell her "deer stalking", I'd advise you to try to steer clear of these subjects if at all possible:

Anal tush
Head shooting
Roaring in the rut
Delayed implantation (unless you reckon you're in)
Ball pizzle
Straight pull
Suspended grallochs
Morning constitutionals (read the relevant thread)

And please, please, don't ask if you can give her retro-pharyngeal glands a quick once over.

Seriously, be attentive, don't try too hard, laugh at all her jokes (but don't tell her the ones in the site's Funnies section) and insist on paying the bill.

If all that fails, quickly post on here the address of the pub you are at and we can all come down and offer our support.

Good luck!

Don't forget to look into her eyes (dont stare cos that might freak her out), just a little bit longer than you would with one of your mates.It's a good signal if she touches her hair, lips or face - apparently it means she sub-conciously wants you to touch her there.

Lets hope she doesn't have a sly scratch somewhere else and if her skirt sticks to her ass when she stands don't for god sake offer to pull it off.
 
I do hope this is a wind up cos with all the agony aunts on here the poor f#cker doesn't stand a chance. At least its better than just slagging off the pro stalkers guides etc. :lol:
 
This is the ideal opportunity to get is a definitive answer as to whether a 30-06 is a suitable caliber for rutting red stags or do you need something bigger by Weatherby? You might also ask her what range is the limit for head shooting? Perhaps take a few photos of random fields in the local area and ask her it she thinks it is a suitable backstop considering that the ground might be frozen, or that there might be someone in a ghillie suit hiding in the grass.

Really I can see that this date might benefit us all here on SD so get as many answers as you can.
 
Just be yourself, and good luck.
Some of the replies on here crack me up though.

Oh yea let us all know how it goes.

On a more serious note, you can't go wrong with Barney Stinson's advice:



The book is available online :-D

Any chance you could get there early and set up a trail camera. I think we would all welcome the opportunity to assess the head.
