Default What kind of headwear do you use?

I aminterested ingetting some headwear.... looking at Cabela's catalog. Can't decide on full or partial facemaskm etc. I will be hunting in fairly warm weather. (September in New Mexico). I wear a ball cap and wear glasses. I definitely don't want a fogging problem with the glasses. Any good or bad experiences/advice?

I made a similar post a while back., if you do a search you should find it. I also noticed one in the new Cabelas archery catalog that has some sort anti fog system for those hunters that wear glasses. I have glasses and wear a mask made by M.A.D. calls. Hope this helped.

I too wear glasses but don't have a fogging problem. Go to a local sporting goods store that sells paint ball stuff. Pick up a bottle of the anti fogging lense cleaner for the paintball masks. IT WORKS GREAT on your glassess. I use it all year round for a cleaner.

As for the headwear I use the Ultimate headwear by Scentlok. Awesome it has a mesh over the ears so you can still hear thing around you.

I always used ivory soap on the lenses of my glasses before I got contacts. It worked great.

I use a scent lok savannah head cover for warm weather. For cold weather, I will be buying one of the x scent balaclava's this year to layer under the scent lok head cover.

i use a full mesh type hooded face with the 3-d leafy cut outs on it. i dont like to wear a cap. i think they have a version with a viser built in. the mesh is light and cool.

I usually wear the cheap ful headnet you buy at Wally world. Works great. But I have taken plenty of deer wearing zero on my face because I dropped or misplaced my net. I just hide behind my bow. Never been detected.
