    Soon to be...

    Well I have found out about the incredible world of Hammocking from watching all of Shugs youtube videos. I am now soon to be a Hammocker. Avid lifetime back country backpacker so I am picking up my first hammock this week. Can not wait to get it!!

    Welcome from Tn
    I have also been an avid backpacker for years and am relatively new to HF.
    I can honestly say that I have gotten a lot of great info from the HF and I am sure you will too.

    Another Ohio guy! Welcome from Canton. We have a group hang planned this upcoming weekend at Zaleski State Forest, and always welcome new faces! Even if you don't have your hammock yet, you're more than welcome to come out with a "ground" setup and try some of ours out to get an idea of how different hammocks lay.

    Welcome to the Forum from The Great (not so) White North.

    If you are able you ought to take USMCStang up on the offer to attend the hang. It is a great way to see different setups and consider what features you would like to spend your hard earned $$$$ on. I am sure it will also be a good way to meet some of the fine folk that hang out here.

    Hang high and dry Brother!
