Can anyone tell me who makes a hood to fit a linebacker type neck. If they fit the face it chokes me. Have tried scuba pro, akuna, and oceanic. Thats all that's available to try on locally.

You're probably built like me ... no neck ... just a short, stocky head-to-shoulder interface.
Bare Elastek and ScubaMax Glide Skin hoods are made for folks like us ... stretchy neoprene, 7 mm up top and 5 mm in the neck for warmth and comfort. Both are relatively inexpensive hoods that hold up pretty well and are very warm. I've been using the Glide Skin for several years in pretty cold water (42-55 degrees, typically) ... and been very happy with it ...
