I am looking for a good, wide brimmed Safari hat. Anyone have a good suggestion? I normally wear a baseball cap when hunting or outdoors but want something that offers more protection for my neck and ears. Thanks.

The TILLEY hat is what I have found to be the best.

You got it in one.

No. I'm afraid to take it out of the Country. Some backward places (like Australia ) seize things like Leopard and Elephant stuff.
I have warn it to some events where a lot of Animal lovers are present. My standard answer to "Aren't they almost extinct?" is "It's a good thing I got mine before they are all gone then."

It is amazing the mis information that gets peddled around these days.
I was flipping through the channels a few weeks ago and saw a Leopard on one so I stopped. It was the Maury Povich show of all things and they had an animal "expert" on the show. His name was Jack Hannah and apparently he is on the show quite a bit introducing the public to different animals.
Anyway.... This "expert" starts to go on about how horribly endangered the Leopard is in Africa.... At that point I just changed the channel.
Ridiculous!
