Skeeter-beeter from Campmor was $39.00 With a simple tarp you should be well within budget.
isn't the ENO with the bugnet less than eighty bucks? I saw those at REI the other day.If you go with ENO, you're looking at $54.95 each for single hammock and bug net. That leaves about $20 for a tarp. Probably not gonna work. :(

There are WAY to many options out there for under $130 to consider buying a used one...unless you're after an HH or Clark.
Just checked Ebay and there's currently 22 HH items mostly Explorers and Expeditions...

Are you interested in a Claytor with tarp for $100.00 shipped? The hammock has velcro along the edges added to accommodate a Speer Snugfit under tarp and it has had it's nylon straps replaced with shorter ones made from polyester webbing.
Can't go wrong with a Claytor setup for $100!
no thank you, he still isn't sure what he wants to do! thanks though!

Mule, that hammock already got here this A.M., and I have already hung in it. Thanks, I was hoping it might get here tomorrow or even Sat A.M. in time to try it out this weekend, but you beat that by a mile.
Now I've got to figure out what to use for spreader bars. If I was in the woods I'd find a couple of sticks.
I use shortened arrows, but my favorite is bamboo. Glad you got it so soon. Mule
