Buy before try... TBH it's the only way I've ever done it. If I'd waited to by a DD until I ran into one in the wild, I'd still be waiting!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. It is so nice to have such a resourse of knowledge available. I watched some youtube videos which I'm sure some were people from this site that was helpful. You can't watch or listen to a podcast from Shug that isn't a carnival in itself. The more serious ones are great as well.
There are serious ones?Originally Posted by Bateauxdriver

You picked a fine hammock, just give it a chance and then if you don't like it, there are plenty more out there to choose from. Welcome to the forum

Make sure to spend a lot of time watching Shug's video's especially his 9 or 10 part "intro" series. Really really informative especially about the different hanging methods. And just crazy fun to watch. He has a channel and is a regular on here but I'm lazy so always just do a Shug Hammock search on YouTube.
Welcome. I'm new here too but more of a lurker though I post from time to time. I'm more of a regular over on BackPackingLight but now I slum it here now :P Cultish groups are always so much more of a good time. lol
You made a good choice . . .
. . . you can't beat a hammock.
