My brother wore a Tilley on every continent there is.  Took pictures of locals posing in the dang thing. He finally lost it, and Tilley replaced it, but the new one had no Mojo.

I have a Red Sox hat that as been around the world many times and on all continents except Africa and Antarctica. I retired it so as not to lose it!

Tilley has a great replacement program. A close friend of mine had a T3 Wanderer hat for many years. It finally had an issue with a snap and threading coming loose. They replaced it for free.

You didn't miss anything in Africa. My brother caught some bug that wiped out his kidneys, he has been on dialysis for almost two years now.

Sorry to hear that. My Mom did rescue physical therapy work in Haiti and the same thing happened to her.

I can't speak to the hat but I use these things in my golf hat and they really absorb a lot of sweat. They are also pretty durable. I do not have any financial interest in these at all - just like them a lot:

Amazon.com: No Sweat Golf Hat Liner & Cap Protection - Prevent Hat Stains Rings, Moisture Wicking, Headband, Sweatband, Hat Saver & Protection, Prevention, Cooling Towel Effect (6-Pack) : Sports & Outdoors

Don't knock this but believe it or not, feminine panty liners work just as well and cost pennies each. Peel and stick them on the inside rim and trim to fit. Obviously the unscented ones are recommended.

I use something similar from time to time.  We have two wide brimmed hats at my parents house and since I had gone without my golf bag, used a hat.  The one problem I found with it was on some swings I found my arms touching the brim of the hat.  Will try it again a couple of times but need to ensure it doesn't distract from my game

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Tour 900 golf ball

Makes sense but I may feel a bit odd doing that.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
