    (I actually have a blaze orange one I've used during bitter cold gun seasons. It rocks.)

    BTW, what I use for bowhunting is one of those heavier weight full headcovers. If it's really cold I put a knit beanie over the top of it.

    I use a fleece beanie with a scent lok scull cap on top. Fleece gives me warmth, and the scent lok cuts the wind. I like to layer so I can have more moisture control. Plus I hate having my ears covered!

    Check out the Gray Wolf Woolens "Radar" hat. It's pretty sweet.

    Anything Under Armour is great. I have the cold gear beanies and the full face masks and that's really all you need. Great wind protection and warmth. You could probably pick both of them up for 30-40 bucks.

    I'm kind of leaning towards the one Buckeye recommended

    X2 ...I just received mine 2 weeks ago and I can't wait for the temps to get lower so I can start wearing it.

    It really is a great hat... The photo on GWW's site does it no justice either. I can snap a couple pics for you if you would like to get a better look at it.

    It is really warm and comfortable hat.

    We just got in some new GWW Fleece hats in Predator Fall Gray. Photos will be up on the site and in the shopping cart shortly. I would recommend getting one of those. :D

    I HAD one of these that was leather on the outside with real rabbit fur liner... warmest hat ever... some idiot up in UP stole it while I was eating dinner on a sled trip... I was PO'd, that thing was pretty pricey... i'll get another some day soon, but it'll be a cordura/faux fir from BPS or Gander...

    What Scott said. The new fleece hats will be up later today, along with some new BHC jackets and a few other items that we just got in.
