First off let me say that I'm not debating that longer hammocks aren't comfortable. I don't know what the theory or science is that decides what makes hammock length so important for comfort. What I do know is that I have and use what is probably the shortest production gathered end hammock out there and I couldn't be happier. So happy that I can't wait to hang in it every night. I'm average build (6', 220 lbs) mid 50's and a side sleeper. While I'm still pretty much a newbie and bought my hammock kinda late in the season, I have no regrets at all about buying a short hammock that has the lie and comfort designed in it. Plus there are other benefits to a shorter hammock like easier tree selection. I can hang from trees 9'-15' which gives me a heck of a lot more options. Other than tweaking my head/foot height, once hung I'm done. Anybody else happy with a shorter hammock? Am I wrong to be happy with mine?
