    new hanger from south alabama

    28 married, outdoorsman, hunter etc…. I wanted to get out of tent camping and I was really up for the idea of a hammock. A friend from work lent me some advice and I started with a ridge line, skeeter beater pro, and a superfly tarp.. borrowed a pluq and went to 47 first night… Then just before this past weekend I bought a incubator 20 and burrow 20 ( expected temp was 26 deg) It only hit 30 but I was very very impressed with the down. So I am now accumulating other things such as water filtration, cook set, first aid, etc.. I have the full intention of traveling the south while hunting and thus this has made it possible… To say the least its in the blood and when I figure out what I do and don't need then a second set will be bought for the wife…

    Mr. Face,

    It was a great pleasure meeting you this weekend and welcoming you to the fold. We had fun this weekend and I know that anything that you need to know about hanging your own hang is one quick post away. Let's get together again soon.
