I’ve been using the brimmed first lite beanie for the last couple years, goofy looking but it works well. I have a big head and it covers my ears, before that I wore a regular hat and a carhartt beanie over it

Any hat mentioned above is fine, the thing that's worth it pack-weight in gold, in cold weather, is the Shampa neck products. You can pull it over your chin and up to your ears where it meets your hat if needed. For the still whitetail hunter, leave a small gap at the ear canal that doesn't your hearing. This will get you through well into sub zero temps.

I have worn an orange Filson big game hat for many years. It's a great cap yet it will expand and give you excellent protection if you need it for bad or windy weather. The short brim will keep Sun out of your eyes but it's not so large that it will contact your string if you're a bow hunter. I loved it so much that I ultimately purchased the exact same model in wax canvas for really wet and snow conditions up here. I've got a lot of great hats but these two are the primary choice 90% of the time.
