The few times I did hat backs, I used the 5.7" hoop (I know-there is a metric 
size for it but I don't do metric).
STIFF backing, tearaway...and as Margaret says, practice with the arc until you 
get what you want.
Open/unsnap the hat back and just let the belt/plastic fall down in the 
hoop-hoop it so the hoop is past the sewn ends. Get it as flat as you can and 
away you go.
The slimline (clamp system) is definitely faster and easier-we have that but 
didn't when I did the hat backs. Just have to put masking tape on the slimline 
frame so you can use a magic marker to note where the hat lines up for fast 
hooping.
