I have whoopie hooks built in to the adjustable end of my whoopie slings. However, after adding up the length of an 11' hammock, plus the tree straps, plus the continuous loops that are larks headed onto the sewn end of the tree strap, and my whoopies set as small is they can go, my minimum distance is still too long 95% of the time.
.83*11' = 9ft + min whoopie 1.5' (x2) + CL 8" (x2) = 13' 4". And my tree straps usually add a foot or 2 on each end. So unless I have fat trees, I need 15-17ft between trees, which seems like just too much. So most of the time I just end up putting a toggle in my tree strap higher up, and using the WS with your standard MSH. Which isn't a big deal, but I didn't buy the hooks just for decoration.
Any ideas on how to add more adjustability to my current setup? Or please share your any other methods that you think work better. I know there's been some new options lately with cinch bugs, anchors, etc.
Thanks!
