Looking for ideas

**opie** · 06-21-2011, 18:04

All-right, I'm looking for something new to try. My BB is on its way to a new, well deserved home and Id like something new and different.

I didn't care much for the Clark I had. Well made, but not simple enough.

I liked the SB, perhaps the DL was to stiff and I should try a single?

I still have and adore my Traveler 1.7d.

Tried the JRB BMBH and it was comfy, but I'm to big for it so I elicited Grizz's services and had one custom made.

Money is an issue, so I dont want to look at $3-$400 hammocks. I prefer simplicity.

Oh, and I dont "need" another hammock, but right now I dont have one with a built in net.

go.

It looks pretty cool to me, and when i eventually get a net attached gathered end (might be never) I will probably have him whip one up for me. Another plus for this is that he can customize it a bit to fit your needs. Such as fabric weight and what not.

How about a Hammock Bliss No See Um No More?

Has the attached bugnet and is reasonably priced. Not the lightest, but we know how that game works.

What didn't you like about the BMBH? I'm not the tallest guy, but I have some girth to me and I really like my bridge hammock. I really wish Warbonnet would hurry up and release his new hammock design.

Cheers
