Thank you sir! :)
 
Here are a couple of my retired hats, kinda like trophies, mud, blood and Kentucky bourbon stained from my youth! The brown resistol was my grandfathers hat, it was almost new when he passed and I wore it everyday for years, the black Stetson was bought for me by my grandmother when she thought the brown one was worn out.
Great thread D.M.V

Thouse are great hats and with a great background. Sentimental value can sometimes be the most valuable things we have. Thanks again for sharing
 
Amen D.M.V. Well said sir!

I hope none of you hunt with one of these! They are like wearing a mirror or beacon on top of your head. I once spotted a hunter from a couple of miles away wearing one. I couldn`t tell what the hell it was at first, until he got close enough. Eventually we spoke and I informed him of his `faux pas` but I don`t think he believed me.

Here are my three current favorites. The first is the hat my grandfather was issued during his time in the Army. I love it because it was his, but the shorter bill is very convenient because it doesn't get in the way of looking through a scope or interfere with a bow string. I was also wearing it when I got my first deer. The middle one is my fly fishing hat and the third is one I bought in Switzerland a few years ago. I spent way too much time (according to my wife) on that trip trying to find the perfect hat. I had to wear it the whole trip home so it wouldn't get damaged. I got some strange looks in the airports, but I'm used to it.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
