Shooting Tie Selection

Rather than scaring the birds away, I usually opt for a less shiny tie and avoid strongly coloured glossy silk ties. Matching the tie to my shooting socks and garters can certainly be challenging, but the distance between them makes it possible to pull of rather bold combinations. If embroided, I preferably match the motif to the game of the day.

And that cheap duck motif polyester tie is never allowed to leave my tie rack unless, of course, the aunt who gave it to me is hosting the shooting party...
