Just curious. From all the reading Ive been doing it appears that the diagonal (Left to Right, or Right to Left) position i sleep in is not very usual ammongst the HF members. So, just to get harder facts, Which is your possition?

Head to the left, feet to the right when laying in the hammock.
Trust nobody!
Head to the left, feet to the right, no matter what hammock. Occasionally I'll try the reverse but usually end up back the way I started.
I'm still playing with length of sag. sometimes it feels good left to right, other times right to left. I hung last night testing out a new idea(new for me any how) and the sag was perfect to sleep right down the middle with no shoulder squeeze, or banana syndrome. hopefully I can duplicate this setup when I get some cord and add a ridgeline

i love sleeping left to right on my blackbird and right to left on my eno... no reason why i guess!

Vertical.
Seriously, it depends on which hammock I am in. There is no "right or left" possible in a BMB, and the Clark is usually down the middle as well. The BB is head to the left, feet to the right; and all the others are whichever way I feel like today.
Since I have a HH, I'm pretty locked into left-to-right, but honestly I'd prefer to lie the other way.

"I fish because I love to; because I love the environs where trout are found, which are invariably beautiful... because, in a world where most men seem to spend their lives doing things they hate, my fishing is at once an endless source of delight and an act of small rebellion; because trout do not lie or cheat and cannot be bought or bribed or impressed by power, but respond only to quietude and humility and endless patience...." --Robert Traver
Well, in such short time I think i can correctly say my first impression was definetly wrong, specially since the rising of the Blackbird. Sorry for not having in mind the bridge hammocks or the bb. Now that i think about it, from where the heck did i get that most HF member slept straight? Any how, thanks for colaborating with the poll.

elcolombianito,
I didn't notice your "signature" earlier. It's a great "Shugism"! Still makes me laugh.

I toss and turn allnight long. Doesn't matter if I am in my bed, tent or hammock.
