[NSRCA-discussion] Wide brim hats

[Bill Glaze]

Bob & all:
I am in absolute agreement.  Aside from looking as if you're on safari, there are nothing but advantages to be gained.  No more sunburned ears, peculiar things that must be looked at by dermatologists, no more sunscreen in peculiar places--on and on.  I'm seldom seen in a baseball type cap anymore.  And, at our fields, nobody seems to even get a grin out of it.

  Another benefit, and one that MANY can "DIRECTLY" relate to - of using wide-brim hats.... they reduce solar radiation to the soft tissues of the ear, sides of face, neck, jaw.... a plain ol' baseball cap doesn't do ANYTHING for those critical carcinoma-potential areas. 

  Ask someone who has needed lymphomas removed from ears...........

  >This discussion about flying thru the sun or with a sun problem brings me to this post. Last year I saw a discussion about the benefits of a wide brim hat. I tried it out and wow what a diference. I fly in the evening alot and our field faces south. So the side sun is in my right eye. With the wide brim it's gone. I think it looks dumb but it works so well I'm willing to take the ribbing the guys hand out for it. Mike
