I am looking for a short bill camo hunting hat.  I like the baseball style hat for early season.  Any ideas on where to look?

The Nocking Point has a good one with a wire in the brim so you can shape it however you like. Different camo's available and maybe even some plain colors? sort of a military style baseball cap with a short brim. Gene Wensel turned me on to them, in one of his posts as "MY NEW FAVORITE HAT". I think they were $9.95. A good buy. I wear one of mine all the time.

I think you have to call them, I don't see these hats listed in their catalog, but they do have them.

I have one made in Predator Camo. I'll have to check the manufacturer for you. I looked and looked for several years and finally found this one on a shelf at the local bow shop. The guy told me he's carried them for a long time but immediately sells out as soon as he gets any in. It's not a particularly good hat, but it's the only one I could find with a short bill!
Is it September yet?!

Just trim off the bill to what ever length on any cap.  A little frayer edge won't scare anything away  :)   DDoc

Bought one two weeks ago from BigJim. The type he sales has wire in the brim that allows you to shape it any way you desire.

sportsman guide has some mil surplus in drab that should fit the bill.

I hate to admit it, but I just used a pair of scissors to cut the bill down on one of the 1000 camo caps I have....... am I really that cheap?
