You want to be a guide and you don't know what to wear? Perhaps you need to be guided for a while first.

Buying certain cloths does not make one a guide.

Broken record: I agree with everyone else, when someone hires a guide they are expecting to get an expert in the field in every apect of the hunt. Meaning you shouldbe a proficient hunter and would probably know what to wear. I would suggest whatever you have had success with in the past.

I have to agree with the others, i think you should take a few years and learn a few things before you guide others...

If I were 20 years old again I would go here or some where like it. I saw a show on television and they appear to have a good program. Of course there is still a lot of personal time required etc but it is a start.
