I have a LL Bean Wool "bucket type" hat i wear when it get's cold......it's a dark Loden Green Color ( and has a short brim)

I'm usually hunting in colder weather so use stocking caps alot.  Also, if you can find one, a Fratzke knit hat is just the ticket.  Kind of like a bucket, but can turn up the cap around the ears which forms a small, inch or so bill, in the front.  Just enough to shade my eye glasses, but not enough to bother a string.  Not made anymore, but sometimes find them on *****.

That tilly looks just like the light green hat I purchased at Wally World a few weeks back for $7.00.  It wasn't for my bow shooting but to keep my chrome dome from burning so much.  Once I started wearing it I realized the brim was short and flexible enough to shoot with.  Works very well.

Nobody has done a camo top hat yet. Be the first! Stores nice and flat!

[TXRED]

Tom,that sounds downright LaClair-ish.No offense,Ron!

I love the Gray Wolf hats.  Crusher in wolfskin for normal use, and a wool bomber when it gets cold.

I still got my old NAM boonie hat..works great for me

I have a kromer look alike that the store couldn't sell - the lady at the cash register said " your really not into fashion - are you?" and the comment keep on coming. But despite public wearing and the ridicule; the hat works the best for me; as I too tend to hit hat brims with the way I anchor. Mine has a bright orange inside; which makes it easier to find if I drop it. I think I have 20 or 30 hats out there of various types that I lost while hunting.  :(

Any hat shop can trim the brim to whatever width you would like it.
If you already have a hat the you like, and some of them are expensive, but the brim is too wide and hits your string, just bring it into a shop and for a few bucks they'll trim it and/or reshape it however you want.
I don't suppose there are quite as many western shops that sell cowboy hats in NY as there are out here, but you shouldn't have to much trouble finding one.

I like the military style boonie hat. The brim is really soft and flexible so it doesn't interfere even in the off chance that it does touch my string and it still keeps the sun off me more than a baseball cap.
