Hello, I am new here,I have been over at COW for years under a different name . I am more of a lurker here I am affraid. I was wondering what type of bash you prefer in your hats and why. Crow height would be good as well. I am in the process of buying a Camptown 1945 Fieldmaster and I am unsure of the bash I want. I like the center dent, but I am leaning towards the C- Crown. Any thoughts, pros or cons would be great. I know in the end it is just whatever I prefer.

It's the indy site.
For me, the bash really depends on the hat. I like a nice hand done c-crown in really soft felt.

Welcome Moonshine.
I also think the bash depends on the hat.
Wait until you have the hat in hand then "go with the flow".
As an aside, were center dents more an English favorite and the 'C' an American one?...

I would also have a look at some classic films and see if there is anything there you like. I would have a look at Casablanca, The Third Man, and Vertigo for a start. That should give you some ideas.
Good luck and welcome.

For some excellent diamond bashes:
watch Sunset Boulevard and pause it on the scene where all the reporters are at the pool....
For cool center dents, watch the street scenes in the original King Kong.

Welcome to the Lounge Moonshine!
I love the looks of the Camptown. Be sure to post some pics when you get it.
I favor a c-crown but love the looks of a diamond bash, just havent had much luck in doing one.

Diamond bashes and center creases were very popular, though I suppose you saw just about everything else in some degree.
Monshine, hopefuly you already viewed the Hat Creases string.

Hey there fellow Cow-poke! I've seen the pictures of the gray Camptown with the c-crown that was posted, and I thought it was pretty unique for a c-crown. It has class and character, plus a dash of adventure. For that, I would go for the c-crown in the Camptown.
