If its the xlc I will still take it.
I have the cash for an UQ but have been hesitant to pull the trigger on it. I have a HH side entry and an not sure which UQ to roll with. The ones I have seen are from 200 to 300. I would use my...
Yes thanks for the list as well.
For the past few years I have been using my shooters mat as a sleeping pad for my HH mostly because its wide and keeps my backside warm down to 40 but its a shooters mat, large, heavy and stiff so...
still trying to schedule off from the firestation so I dont know exactly what days I will be there just yet but I am looking at getting an underquilt before the event and trying it out.
I am at work have some family matters to attend to. I am not going to be able to make it Friday as planned but may be able too Saturday morning. Nothing major just the stomach virus making its...
KK I have sold every bow I have built and dont even have one for myself!! Need to make another one after season it over. I built a new 7m-08 rifle and plan to gun hunt this year. I have pics of it as...
Ok after loading my truck I decided not to bring my bow for fear of damage but I will gladly still bring the target if its wanted.
Yeah Mosquitoes suck!
I wont be coming on Thursday. I had a stomach virus on Monday but must work a 24 hour shift before taking vacation time so I will arrive early Friday.
Is the ez-up still...
I do have one extra hennessy and two if I can find some whoopie slings for it if someone is in need of a hammock. Just let me know and I will load them up.
Yup I will be there early Thursday.
I am but I was asking because I build calls too as a hobby and if there were some Turkey hunters coming I would bring some for trade and play items.
Any Turkey hunters coming?
I will have a 2 1" thick fire grates kajunkat that I will be bringing. I cook a lot with cast iron and the thick heavy grates hold the heat very well for things like eggs, deer meat fajits and...
Hey if you dont have an under quilt its good to have the fat reserves! Welcome to the post swamp and for that dont know I am shane.
I have catsplats xl sheet but it did not say what it was rated for.
I have been looking around and see some quilts using the 850+ down for UQ anywhere from 10 to 14oz but how much is needed to get to 30*? Does having fewer baffles lessen its warmth even if the total...
Very nice man and congrats. Anything you would do different next time?
I have been at the firestation for the last 4 days and before leaving the house I always place my hh and its tarp just incase. It was a crazy last few days but nothing like my fire dept buddy in...
Well I think that goes without saying, this is Louisiana ;) I don't see any point in camping like this without having some good food to go along with it. If you don't like Bacon, ribeye steak,...
please delete
Sweet idea and like you say more of a diy addiction for building them but has anyone tried to simply crimp each end of the SC to the Guy and cover the crimps with Heat Shrink? Seems lots quicker and...
I am happy to enter this somewhat verbal contract ! LOL!!!:lol:
You cant have biscuits without bacon and sausage! I know I will have a couple slabs of good ol' wrights thick cut bacon on hand and will be willing to trade for some biscuits !:D
I have a flat...
Thanks. I am not too concerned about the weight increase and plan to DIY a pack soon anyway so making a custom pack to hold all the stuff sacks will be easy.
I have seen a couple builds on each...
Thanks with the reply's and sorry I am slow to reply, I dropped my cell and broke it so I can log on from the station till the new cell gets here.
I will be taking you up on the offer to help as...
Ok I am am a big man and I am at the point that I get nervous in my hennessys since the two I have are rated at 250 and I am a hefty 270. I know they have a safety rating under what they can hold and...
OK looking at the two UQ's and did a search for how they compare against each other so those that have used both how do they rate? Pros for or against?
I was doing inventory in the shop and found a 4 yard roll of supplex that was earmarked to be a hammock but was relegated to the "shelf" when I went ahead and bought a couple HH's.
Whats your...
I am bringing 10 gallons in 2 food grade containers just so I did not need to rely on anyone else but also will add at least a case or 2 of water bottles along with it. Looking forward to this trip...
Seeker is still seeker but since make so many things and I was on a James bond kick the redneck q it was LOL
Yeah I am looking forward to it as well. I switched to Dutch buckles and added a couple...
Thanks everyone for the help and replies. I think I will make the climashield UQ this time around atleast. I saw another post somewhere on using multiple layers of climashield xp and removing the...
BillyBob weight is not that big a concern as it once was as my hiking buddies are now my paddling buddies! I was looking at using the climashield in 6 oz since the climashield UQ would be an easy...
Thanks BS as that is just what I was wanting to hear since I really wanted down lol! For the past 2 years I have used my fat and an air mattress so its time to upgrade!
So most of you are using down? Have you had any issues with it getting damp due the humidity? I can build either a down or synthtic. I looked at the 5 oz climashield UQ and have read good things...

Hey gang , I getting ready to build and under quilt for my Hennessy and was wondering for those of you like me that live in the deep and humid south how thick are your UQ and are they down or...

Yall can call me wink or Shane. I build and design a few things so when I picked the name it was more of a goofy pun :)
No worries and I will bring the med kit. I have a commercial 10 by 10 EZ-up if its needed as well.
Hello gang, I have lurked here for a couple years and joined last year but rarely post. Another HF member on another forum told me about the "Hanging in Louisiana" so I scheduled off and will be...
Got it ordered but must wait till the 15th to read it !! lol!
Not sure where to put this so if it is in the wrong place I apologize, however big thanks to AZTECH for the whoopie sling he/she made me. Tested them out on an HH deluxe and now understand all the...
Really good info about the humidity. I have lots of trouble with it here in La. Great question, thanks!
PM sent , I want to buy a set
Dragon did you use 2 or 3 loops on your prussic?
Been using the HH as it comes from the factory for a few years but never had an issue with the spectra ropes, just the tying off was slow. With the prussic attached to the spectra ropes its just as...
I have several HH's and really dont want to remove the rope that comes on it but I do want to make it quicker to setup ,adjust and less to carry. I saw in Grizz's vid that he no longer recommends...
I am open for questions anytime:scared:
