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.

Just don't tell anyone, it's an old racer's trick

    • Day 4 (24 Jun 26) - Played the mid-week shootout - iffy day on putts as I had 35 and of late been in the upper 20's.   Greens recently verti-cut and they are a bit bump and long haired - no excuses as I need to learn to trust making the proper adjustments.   Overall a decent day with some solid long game shots.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
