I agree mate, but I still like to sit down and have a cup of tea!!!! I
no doubt think you would get some great results with the Suit, I have
also had some fantastic results from the Blind method and it always
works, it's great that there are all these options out there :-)

Martyn,
There are times when the target species does not have a consistent
return
point, so the blind doesn't offer an advantage. I wanted to point out an
alternative method, one that works well in some situations. I agree that
you
look pretty stupid wearing the suit, but the results can be satisfying.
It
may not be for you, but some others might want to try it.
