My thinking on it is this, this organization is nothing, nada. They have no real power over organizing bodies, they have no influence at ranges.
When cowboy action got big there were numerous bodies out there. SASS became the biggest and the best run organization and sanctioning body for...
Gun show. Auction. Two best places. Though I don't know the laws up there regarding buying something in the states and taking it or having it shipped there.
Yep! I'm not surprised he is the only bidder on that, 6 7/8 is already hard to find folks who can wear, that's even smaller than that.
it's a really nice looking hat though.
That's pretty much what I thought. Thanks.
Most western hats wearers want a stiff hat, unlike us. It would have to be marketed and sold by the dressier shops I think. And maybe people aren't crazy about the natural color. It's a nice color to me.
Thanks and I would agree that the hat should prob be seen first as the crown is very short and tapered, nothing at all really like the OR crown.
Can you answer the questions above about the Roadmaster, the stiffener, the felt weight. Is it an OR with less stiffener and a nat color, more like...
I don't think I ever saw that thread and I don't think I have ever seen that model in person. Maybe one of the HATCO outlets has one you could order for less money and see what it is like. I'd be interested to know.
I don't know if he still has it, but I like the look of it. I have a PB hat that got wet and I cannot get it to look right again. I may take mine to Mike and have it reblocked. I would the brim on mine to be shorter as well.
What's up Tommy my brutha. Did you forget to send my yearly sample pack of the new stuff? :p
Tommy you will like this. Last night it was a La Luna Africa Fuerte. It has to be what 8-10 years old? Still great. mmmmmmmmmmm
Thanks for the kind words folks. The more I look at it the more I like it. Sometimes you need to take a pic of yourself in a hat before you decide if it looks good.
Very nice. I have also seen one OR in that OR, maybe it was a bit darker. Nice hat! I just picked up a strat in true silver silverbelly. They just have great proportions at least in my estimation.
Looks to me like the OR except in another color, more tan-brown than the new silverbelly. If the felt is anything like the new OR though you won't like it. I know you like a nice soft hat, these are stiff as cardboard. Which is a shame because certainly Stetson could make a nice soft OR like...
You know to tell you the truth I don't think I have ever taken a pic of the inside of that hat. I will have to try and remember to do that next time I fire up the camera.
I am giving serious consideration in selling a few of his hats that I cannot wear to people on TFL who wear shorter brims...
First half of today before it warmed up a lot it was my grandfather's Pilgrim. I have a lot of his hats, but this is one of the few I can wear. This is a 7 LO which fits me well, though I am a 7 1/8 LO. I have worn it for years and it is the shortest brimmed hat I wear at just 2 1/4".
I honestly don't know anything about it. The only thing that strikes me right off about this compared to the Campdraft as it looks like the crown is much shorter and more tapered. It looks like my Stetson Gun Club Dune, only with a shorter brim. It will look more like that or a couple of the...
