Don't quit wearing your safety glasses, it's hard to trap coon with a seeing eye dog.

help coon man,by answering his question. Not confusing the issue with the declaration of Independence.
Try some different masks at home coon man,see which works best for you.
I have yet to have my glasses fogged by a mask. Though several have had their brains fogged by the mention of one.
Good luck coon man.

Might try a neck gaiter coonman if it's permissable.

Here are some examples.

I know people will wear them when fishing or in dusty conditions. So it might be more breathable or at least feel cooler.

We have to wear them at the Nuke plant I work at. The regular surgical masks suck to wear in hot humid environments. I prefer a plastic face shield compared to a surgi mask. The cloth masks in my opinion are even hotter to wear.
The company has even started ordering hard hats that have the face shields built in.

I was given 2 mask, I do not wear them and am not falling for all this crap. However I need to post a disclaimer, if you get mask and warsh them, they are quite a bit smaller when they come out of the dryer.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Coonman asked for help with masks.Good for those who are trying to help. smart (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) replies sure aren't helping him.
If you think you don't need a mask--good luck to you. Don't criticize or degrade those that do. Helping a fellow trapper should be more important than trying to implement your views

Coonman- I have been using some N-95 masks. Wouldn't mind trying one of those neck gaiters though.

They make a cooling mask that we use, like Amspoker posted. It’s similar to a neck gaiter and much easier to breathe through and not fog up safety glasses.
Always amazed at the guys who just quit their jobs as they’re holding up the constitution declaring their rights. Most businesses I go in have their own set of rules to follow...and because I have a family and a couple of bad habits (eating and the outdoors) I’ll follow their rules no matter how ridiculous I think they are. I like that money hitting my account every two weeks.

What a LOT of people need is for someone close to them contract this virus. It isn't pretty, it is not the common cold.
My sister-in-law had COVID-19 in March . She is over the virus but has ongoing lung problems since. This is serious.

Oh BTW, I hate wearing those masks too but by wearing one, I may be preventing someone else from getting ill including myself. I wore one for 30 years off and on for work.

Trouble is he won't accept help or advice. However there may be others who could benefit from sound advice.

You'll never silence the really cool guys with their " [Linked Image] I'm not wearing a mask, and nanana you're dumb if you do."
