I am Shug

[Firedog]

After reading every post, all I can say is Thanks & Whooo Buddy.

It would be great if the Discovery or History Channel would do a reality show featuring Shug's ramblings around the country.
Dr. Doug Phillips from the University of Alabama does a show called Discovering Alabama that is a great highlight to our great outdoors. You Shug, could do one for the whole country. The world according to Shug.

Go Team Shug!

Thanks again!

Dear Shug,

LOL.. like that intro? Anyways I would personally like to thank you for all your videos and music. I have learned so much from you already that I think that -22 would be no problem for me next year. Every Time I watch your videos new and old I learn something new.

Yesterday I fell in love with the boots you wear during the winter and now want a pair for my 36 mile winter hike in some of the most killer terrain here on the NY/Mass. border called the Taconic Crest Trail. I have a image of the terrain on my profile pics if you want to see what it looks like.

Tonight I found one of your older vids and learned that I need to have a splash guard during rain. I didn't even think of that, DOUGH.....

As with a lot of people here, you have brought me countless hours of laughter, knowledge, joy, tricks, tips, ideas, gear reviews, links, discuss (the nose enema was way to much for me to see, but yes I did watch it anyways ) and also to hammockforums.net

Your confidence in me (with the right gear of course) that I could have some of the best overnight experiences on the trail in a hammock, made me decide that this is the way I want to go.

Thank you very very much for all the time and hard work you put in, in order to get us your "Hammock Talk", "Hammock Talk from a Minnesota Tree", "Hammock Tails from Minnesota", "Hanging around Minnesota", or what ever else you want to call your vids, there all great.

P.S. You need to have more music, or let us know where we can get some of it. I love bluegrass and not to many people up this way play it.

P.S.S. If you ever get out this way, let me know. I want to make sure you get up to the Dream Away Lodge here in Becket Mass. Its where some of the greatest musicians have gone to just have a good time.
Oh and its got tons of state land very close by that would love to have a hammock hung from it's trees at night.

That Shug - what a great influence he is to us all! Some day I hope I will have the enjoyment of a hang with you in person, not just in video! And here's a real tribute - because of you, I bought and religiously use a Netti Pot!!! So - warm hangin' and a clear sinus to you, buddy!

my 36 mile winter hike in some of the most killer terrain here on the NY/Mass. border called the Taconic Crest Trail.

Would like to know your exact route.

I have a write-up of a bushwhack from the AT south of Jugg's End over to the Taconic, south of Mt Fray, that would enable a pretty good multi day loop.

Thinking of trying it in late spring

I think that's a great idea. How many people are here because they thought about using a hammock and went to youtube? I'd say there's a fair case for it.

Shug, I've seen a couple videos before, but after watching several in a row, I've come to the conlusion... you're nuts!

That's OK, I'm happy to know that I'm in good company

Thanks for the vids. You lurnin' fun.

Me for one! I thought it very interesting that after having looked up tons of videos on hammocks and especially the main brand I'm considering, I happen on the the forums and find a couple of the authors of the videos I found most entertaining AND informative.

Glad that ya'll take the time to help out us less informed folk! Thank you guys!
