    Blackbird with whoopies

    I just unboxed my hammock with whoopies and I need suggestions on adding a drip ring. Should I remove the whoopies and attach a continuous loop then a ring then the whoopies?
    Thanks

    You won't need one. The whoopie tail will be sufficient.

    Thanks. After just watching a video showing the string is more effective than metal at catching and releasing the drip you are right.

    Another really small piece of string a few inches closer to the whipped end of the hammock body would also provide extra insurance if you're nervous about the sling tail not being up to the task.
