10Hockey Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Living in AZ we get a lot of brutal sun . What hats seem to work best for sun protection ? Not interested in waterproof as it rarely rains , mainly sun protection for the face area. I can always put my collar up on my shirt for my neck and I do not like that flap for the neck area. Trying to keep it compact but yet effective. tony@CIC 1 Quote Srixon Irons Cobra Driver Volkey Wedges Evenroll putter 3 hole in ones so far ( Ohio, Hawaii, Australia ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattF Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Any sort of sun hat from your course (my course has them so I assume yours would too) or from the OEMs work well. I have 2 from Mizuno the same as this Titleist and Callaway have their own Budget golf also has a largish selection.

tony@CIC Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 I like the Aussie Chiller hats they come in both narrow and wide brim. A benefit is that you can soak them for added heat relief. FYI, you want to protect your ears which most people don't put sunscreen on.

bellken Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 A Titleist Aussie works for me. You can, also, look at fishing, and, hiking hats, in addition to golf hats. And be sure to check for a UPF rating. tony@CIC, 10Hockey and MattF 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny B Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 I have a Dorfman Pacific soaker hat available on Amazon. I soak the hat in the clubhouse before tee time, but its dry after 2-3 holes in the <20% humidity here in the desert. I use the water coolers on the #5, #8, #13 and #16 tees to re-soak it. If the wind is up, I have to switch to a regular hat because it's distracting.

Hoodman22 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 I use an Ahead Palmer hat. Play in Aruba and the Northeast, and the hat does a good job of keeping me cooler and protected from the sun. I have a large noggin (7 7/8), and the Palmer fits me well. Hope this helps.
