Who has both? Pros and cons? Probably end up buying both but why not ask and maybe save a bit.
....this is for an all round cold weather hat, mostly tree stand whitetail bow hunting but also so late season shit so seasons.
Nothing so far has dethroned my wool filson hat ...but it's getting a little stretched out and with good on its sliding foward.

Thoughts between the two?

Can’t speak for the Blizzard Beanie at all but I can tell you that the fanatic will melt your head off. I have it and have worn it in the bowstand in very cold conditions in northern Wisconsin and there is no way your head is getting cold. I would say that anything above 20 degrees you really won’t want to wear it walking around much.

I prefer the Incinerator GTX Hat over both. It’s nice to have a brim. I actually wish it came in blaze orange for late rifle as well.
I'll second this one. I've worn mine in some absolute crap weather and it's performed flawlessly. The brim makes a ton of difference if you're in snow or rain. If anything happens to this one, I'll replace it immediately.

Incinerator didn’t work for me for archery. Every time I’d draw my bow, the hat would tip forward over my eyes. Worked great with the rifle though.

Say what? I've never had that problem with the incinerator hat. Hell, I bought it specifically for archery.

yep...When I drew my bow, the hat (the bill) would move enough on my head that it obstructed my view.
