Made myself a new hunting hat..

[Mudd]

Don't laugh please!!

This is my 1st attempt to make what I think of as an authentic archers' hunting hat. I made this one out of suede leather.

Ok you can laugh.. my wife did..lol Then she said it looked like something she'd expect to see in an old Errol Flynn movie.. made my day!!

 
 

Joekeith gave me the idea. I hope he'll post a picture of his.

God bless,Mudd

[Bowferd]

Going to get a set of tights next Mudd?    


Just teasing.

[daveycrockett]

Where's your merry men?    

Just teasing too. Kinda looks good.

[yaderehey]

Have you tried shooting with it yet?  I always have trouble with the string hitting hat bills when drawing.  I don't think the bill on your hat would work for me because of that.  I have to say though the lines of that hat have speed written all over it! Very aerodynamic!!

[Mudd]

My merry men are typing responses to this post..lol

I went over to the HS and spoke with the home ec teacher. She and her husband to that medieval thing. Anyway, she has agreed to make me a wool tunic and vest to go with my fustian shirt.

There will not be any tights!! I do have a couple of pair of buckskin trousers/pants that should work.

I'll be sure to post pictures when I get the whole outfit together.

Thanks for the kind words.

God bless,Mudd

Takes a man of much confidence to post such a pic.    

[Mudd]

God bless,Mudd

[Zradix]

Nice hat!!! Very aaahhh regal..yeah..regal.
Truly a nice hat. I'm thinking one might be in order for myself.

[joekeith]

Lookin' good Mudd.  Right now I'm havin' computer problems.    and yes, that dang point in the front does get in the way.    

[L. E. Carroll]

Watch the "Kilt" thing...  

[joekeith]

Seems like I remember seeing Ron La Claire in a hat like that from long ago......  

[SveinD]

Think the hat looks good!
But remember, if yer gonna do tights, they were most likely not green. In that era and part of Britain they had thing for sharp red and blue, though blue was somewhat expensive...  

[Thumper Dunker]

I think its cool looking.

[kibok&ko]

where is the green skin-tight pants of Errol ???


by the way, good job on the hat !

[Gray Buffalo]
