RE: Shooting Outside

Shooting outside may be really funny considering all the factors to take into account.

In order to appreciate, you will probably need :

sun-glasses,
a hat,
an umbrella,
good shoes...

If the ground is wet and you don't have boots, you may put on your shoes plastic bag secured with a rubber band at the ankle. It does not look pretty, but this is efficient to prevent soaked feet.
If the wheather is wet, you may wear a cagoule under a rather tight shirt that will prevent it from being caugth by the string.

As for shooting outdoor, energic release is often highly recommended. It helps a lot not being too much bothered when it's windy. Aiming step shall also be short in that case, unless you have the body of a muscular woodcutter...
