The ultimate winter hat??

#1 Post by Mick Smith » Thu May 21, 2009 6:51 pm

I've just ordered myself another hat. 8) You can't have too many, you know. :wink:

This one is going to be my main winter bowhunting hat. It's a Drizabone waterproof bucket hat. It has a nice short brim, which won't interfere with my bow string. It's fully lined, so it will be warm. All this for just $45 all up, including postage. Why wouldn't you buy one yourself? :D

There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.

It's a pleasant fetish piggy. :wink:

I've delt with the company in the following link a few times now. Their prices are very competitive and they offer excellent service. I highly recommend them if you decide you might like one of these hats too. They take all the cards, as well as Paypal.

The Drizabone bucket hat turned up in the mail today. 8)

Everything Australian is an excellent company. They had the hat in the post on the same day they received the order.

I'm very happy with my new hat. The brim is stiff enough to hold its shape, so it doesn't look all floppy like some bucket hats do. There's absolutely no problems with my bow string making contact with the brim even with my longest longbow.

I also like the look of the hat. It's very businesslike. Not too fancy looking. :D

So yeah, if you're looking for a great hat to wear bowhunting or to archery tournaments over the winter months, look no further. This is it. :wink:
