    Akubra Territory goes hunting in Wyoming

    No wind to speak of. I think the mountains did prevent that. Down on the plains the wind was considerable.

    Akubra Territory goes hunting in Wyoming

    I was in the Jackson / Hoback area right near the snake river. BTW..... for anyone who is interested... Maine is much colder than most of Wyoming. People in Wyoming are fortunate in so far as they receive most of their snow as a result of elevation. We in Maine get an ass load of snow...

    Akubra Territory goes hunting in Wyoming

    My Akubra Territory earned its cold weather stripes last week. I took it to Wyoming on an Elk and Mule Deer hunt. It worked flawlessly keeping rain and snow off my head while keeping my ears free to hear. Also, it looked pretty good the whole time if I do say so myself!!!:eusa_clap...

    Akubra Overload

    Definatly go for a hat jack. I own 2 of em and I keep them gently in any hat I am not going to wear for a while. They also help break in a new hat very well. I have the same problem...I am in between a 60 and a 61 so my Akubras need to be streched a little. The hat jack gets the job done...

    Help a guy out - what's a good Akubra?

    You can't go wrong with the territory, that was my latest Akubra. I also have a Snowy River and a Cattleman. The Cooper Peedy would be another great one. You really can't go wrong with an Akubra. BTW don't worry about rain. I have soaked all of mine repeatedly and they are none the worse for...

    SAN ANTONIO HAT SHOPS ???

    THANK YOU and Thank You, I stopped in and picked up 2 nice little cow girl straws for my 2 little girls. They had some BEAUTIFULL Pannama straw hats, HOWEVER I think if I spent $350 on a hat my wife would ensure that I would not have a head to wear it on!!!!

    In Support of Brick and Mortar Hat Shops

    I agree 100% I always try to support local shops and stores. Not only because it helps the local economy and makes what is available around here better BUT I never understood the dumbo that would spend $40 in gass to drive to a "Big Box Mart" to save $5 !!!!:eusa_doh: HOWEVER now days...

    The $100,000 hat

    :eusa_clap lol lol HELL YEAH !!! A comedian (I don't remember who) said that cocaine was one of Gods ways of letting you know that you had too much money. Perhaps a hat for 100K that was made by some poor Ecuadorian that made maybe $2500 that YEAR is also Gods way of saying you not only have...

    Finally got an old Stetson 7X!

    SWEET HAT!!! My only felt Stetson is a 4X. The 7X must be really fine! I have to ask, did you steam the hat to put all those creases in it?? If not it truly is an amazingly malleable hat.

    Tall Ship Sail

    I have to recommend a Tilley T3. It isn't as classy as an Akubra but it is the best sailing hat out there.

    Just got my first hat in..

    NICE LID!! Looks like a good choice. Don't worry about the gap. Wear the hat day in and day out and it will conform to your head. Having a hat that is too tight is a much bigger problem IMHO. That is where a hat jack comes in, it cuts down on break in time and can save you some literal...

    SHOW US YOUR TAXIDERMY

    Neat article. That is a little to Adams Family for me. I prefer more contemporary things. Also I find no value in the display of a animal in taxidermy that I did not hunt. Just my .2

    SHOW US YOUR TAXIDERMY

    It was a lot cheaper in Africa than the US. I get all my African taxidermy done in Africa. You have to ship the stuff home either way, you might as well send it home finished. I use a taxidermist in the US for anything from North America.

    SHOW US YOUR TAXIDERMY

    I didn't do any of the taxidermy myself, the only thing I have ever done is clean and bleach out some skulls.

    SHOW US YOUR TAXIDERMY
