From the number of responses to the thread on the new, extra-large Rifle Loony hats, it's apparent some Campfire members didn't know we've been offering "standard" Rifle Loony hats for a number of years. They're $20 shipped, while the extra-large hats are $25, due to the fact that we have to pay more for them even before the logo's applied.
There's been a little run on the standard hats, and right now we don't have camo and cobalt blue in stock, but we do have slate, sage, tan and a slightly subdued blaze orange. The extra-large hats come in blue, black, tan and gray.
The standard hats fit traditional sizes up to 7-1/2, and the extra-large sizes from 7-1/2 up. So far we haven't found any rifle loony with a head too big for the extra-large models....

glad to hear about the X-large size. I'll get one ordered.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Son of the Gael,
Should probably add a decal of some sort for that test....

Bruce,
Not yet for the extra-large ones. I'll send you a couple via e-mail.

Hmmm, good looking hat, or cap I guess.
I liked the description of Loony-loonie.
Loonie sounds like what you throw to the Dancing girls in Medicine Hat.
What kind of style are they? Would you call them sort of a low front or more of a "farmer" style with the tall front?
I have a exceedingly large noggin, the contemporary style low front looks like a yarmulke on me.
I am MAGA.

The extra-large hats solve that problem. I wear an above-average size myself, 7-3/8 in traditional hat size, but the crown of extra-large hats covers my eyebrows!

Very glad you like it! Hope you're doing well.
Along with being pleasant, she's the one who conceived and designed the hats....

Where in BC? I got a nice bull in the northern part of the province a while back. It was a 2-day drive even from here!
When are you coming through? Glacier can be great in early fall--unless it snows.

Tom
tentative plans are we are staying at Bozeman on 9-22 and then heading up to Glacier on the 23rd and staying overnight up there and then taking the Going to Sun road on the 24th and ending up at Missoula the evening of the 24th. Wife will fly out of Missoula on the morning of the 25th.
I was hoping to have time on the 23rd to take you and Ingwe wife to lunch. Ill pm you my # I was also planning on stopping in at your old place of employment and looking at guns.
I had originally planned on driving up by myself as my wife does not want to leave the US. I kept asking her if she wanted to ride up to Montana and then fly back and she kept saying no. I finally asked one to many times and she called my bluff. So I changed plans to leave a little earlier so we can make a mini vacation out of it. Should be fun.
John
Ill be hunting near Smithers BC Im figuring 2 days to get there from Missoula. Im to meet the outfitter on the 27th Im leaving Missoula on the 25th. Last week of September, first week of October.

Yep, two days drive would be about right. You should have a great time.
I would suggest all of us getting together for lunch on your way through, except we're probably going to be upland bird hunting in eastern Montana, just before the great invasion of pheasant hunters.

Will definitely let you know if we are. Right now we're still coordinating our bird-travels with various other people.
