Anyone got one of these old gems, in decent shape, they want to sell. New pup of mine chewed up the one I have hunted for nearly 35 years.

I saw that. He fell in with them Mossy Oak boys and is the only one getting them made. He is sold out. I hate to buy anything from him, but I may have to. Of course, i will be cutting the patch off first thing. Still would like to find someone with an original though.

3 Rivers Archery has them as well, still have to cut the patch off I guess though.

I've got an old school shirt bill with the mask in it .  Although I seldom wear it ,  I wear glasses and a short bill doesn't cut the glare off them like a longer bill does .

What pattern is it

You mean I am cool again when I hunt with this?

Sir, this has nothing to do with being "cool", I can assure you of that. I'm 53 years old, and have been hunting turkeys since I was 5. Got 2 of those hats in the late 80's when they first came out. All I ever hunted in. First one I retired to the fire in the early 2000's due to the almost black appearance from constant use. 2nd one, as I stated, was recently shredded by my dog. Would love to own another in either Greenleaf, Bottomland, or Full Foliage. I'm too old to be cool, and am no fan of the recent youtube trends in turkey hunting going around. After running into a couple of these prominent "clowns" in the woods, while hunting over the years, I have started to notice a resurgence in there popularity. So be it, but it won't stop me from hunting one, if I can find another :)

That wasn't pointed at you at all, sir. I was just laughing at the fact that as soon as certain popular figures start using items many of us have used for years. Well, then everyone has to have them. Like you, I have used these hats for years, mainly bowhunting but occasionally for turkeys. Just be prepared for them to be "cool" again. I wish you luck in your search. I think mine is about 20 years old now and definitely seen better days.
