Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Do you wear a hat?

I only wear a hat when hunting/fishing/working in the sun. I wore a baseball cap a whole bunch as a kid, but I'm no longer a kid so I don't.

Never at the table.

The fact that caps are referred to as "hats" points out how much time has changed things.

I wear a felt hat every time I step outdoors.

I remove it when entering a private home. If a damn caf� don't want me wearing it, they need to put hat racks right inside the door like they used to.

I don't know if wearing a hat makes you bald, but I know that being bald makes you wear a hat.

Exactly. If a place doesn't want me spitting on the floor they should have spittoons like they used to.

I'm bald, so I wear a hat.

In restaurants, I look around and if I see that most of the male customers are wearing their hats while they eat, I'll leave mine on, too.

As a mark of respect for local custom.

Sex makes you bald, not a hat.
Your bald ancestors had sex and you are the result. They were bald, you will be bald. My ancestors had lots of hair on top and so do I.

Real men chew or dip without spitting. I'm surprised you didn't know that.

I'm surprised you don't have gay friends.

No you're not.

If I am out side, I have a hat on, inside, no. It is what mannerly people do, of which a lot of that is lost in the current younger generation, as shown by some of the responses.

As for hardware in guys faces, it only makes them look like they fell face first into a tackle box.

I've got a waxed hat around here someplace, but I haven't worn it in years. I do, however, wear a cap just about every time I leave the house. I take it off in church, menu restaurants, school, and people's homes. I take it off other times and places as it seems appropriate to me.

Yes I do

Most time I take it off inside

Always when at the table

Usually a Stetson "gus" style western hat when I'm outdoors.
On hot summer days it's a Resistol straw hat.

Always take it off when I come in the house and hang it on a hat peg by the door.

Take it off in a restraunt where others aren't wearing hats or caps.

Some restraunts around here the waiters even wear caps.

I wear a hat unless I am sleeping or eating at the table, and church of course.

One of the things about Bum Phillips I liked, he wore his trademark hat on the game sideline.
Save in the Astrodome, Bum said his mother taught him not to wear a hat indoors.

If you're a Yankee....

What Bum actually said was that his mother taught him not to wear his hat in the house,and he said that the Astrodome was his house.

Left mine in the shop on the table saw yesterday. I wear hats when the weather dictates it. It is never raining indoors, though I wouldn't remove it in a grocery or convenience store.
