    Noobie from NC

    Welcome, everybody! I have enjoyed "lurking" and decided to join.

    I like to hunt and fish and thought going to the outdoors prepared to spend the night would also give me more flexibility in where and when I go. I have an upcoming turkey hunt in SC at a friend's farm. One of the houses we stay at is very nice but the other cabin on the farm is a shack of the worst order and we may be staying there this year. My thought was to camp outside of the "cabin" and avoid sleeping in the mouse (rat?-occupied shack as I have had to do before. I became intrigued with "hanging," and decided to consider this as an alternative to dragging a tent down to SC.

    I also enjoy DIY projects and this form of camping appears to be replete with opportunities.

    I noticed there seems to be a large number of members from my home state of NC. I look forward to participating. I hope my questions are not too annoying.

    Best regards,
    John => j3T

    welcome to the madness from down on the coast.

    NC does have the most registered hangers, probably because we have so many trees.

    Be sure and a attend a group hang where you can check out lots of different rigs and meet some of the folks from the forum
    I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !

    Welcome aboard from New Bern, NC. You will learn a lot from this esteemed group of hangers.

    In theory, there's no difference between theory and reality.
    In reality, there is.

    "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
    Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
    The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
    while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." — John Muir
