I've done several orders of visors for youth softball teams and have found them 
very easy to work with if you do a couple things.

First - get the hooptech cap frames and ditch the melco frames for all of your 
hats. I know they're expensive, but you will thank me later. It's worth the 
money.

Second - use a double layer of stiff tearaway backing and make sure you 
digitize the design at no more than 1.85 inches tall. Width is not so 
important. I often go seam to seam on visors.

Make sure your designs sew center outward and bottom to top. The double layer 
of backing really helps to hold things togethor and keep the visor from wilting 
at the top as you sew near the edge.

Visors are easy if you have the right frame and practice on a couple to get the 
feel.
