    Hello from Snellville, GA

    Hey Everybody. I'm new to the forum and fairly new to hanging. I am a Scoutmaster here in Snellville and first saw some kids hanging under a shelter at scout camp a year ago. It looked pretty cool, so this year I got me a Grand Trunk Skeeter Beater Pro. I find I use it more upside down than I do with the net up. I may get me a new one for Christmas without a net.

    So far I think I have hung 4 times: 2 miserable nights, and 2 really good nights.

    Probably the coolest place I hung was at the BSA Sea Base down in the keys on Big Munson Island in July. A storm blew in at night and gave plenty of wind but no rain. Slept like a baby!!

    Looking forward to learning more here.

    And I am in for a N GA hang. Sounds fun!

    Welcome to HF from Athens. We're having a group hang at Ravens Cliffs the last weekend of this month. Come out and join us if you can. Great group of folks to share a campfire with.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    First thing I did when I saw that last night was check the calendar. Unfortunately I have already made plans to go deer hunting that weekend. We're camping the weekend before with Scouts, so that will be my first Saturday I can just hunt, otherwise I would totally come on up. I will try to make the next one. Sounded like a ton of fun.

    Glad the tree didn't get ya 2Ply!

    Now that the weather is cooling off there will be more group hangs in the works. Hope y'all can make some of them.
