Hey Red, thanks for posting your video, very nice job! You have some nice photos too. Just curious, which camera do you use for your stills and for your video? I have Nikon D3s and a D300 that I use...
Welcome aboard from another Bama Hanger! It's always good to see new folks on here, especially when they are from your state or even better from your local area. There's lots to learn from the...
Hey Taylor! Welcome from another Bama Hanger! I am from Fort Payne. This is some crazy weather we are having now, sure doesn't seem like December.
Hey Fronkey, Great video bud!!! I think you are a shoe-in for sure. It's been quite awhile since I've been on HF, but I happened to tonight and found about the contest. Just voted for ya man and will...
First , welcome to the forum !!! Snake skins are nice and make quick work of hanging or taking down your tarp. I use them on two of my tarps. If your tarp is wet you want to stow it on the outside...
Hey man, Welcome to HF! I keep my hammocks in the stuff sacks that they came in. It's been my experience that the hammocks pretty much fill up their respective stuff sacks and they fit well into my...
Hey Welcome to HF!!! I only have a Hennesy Scout that I bought for my grandson to try out. I have two Blackbirds though, a 1.1 DL and a 1.7 DL. Lots of hangers use the Blackbirds and we love ours....
Welcome from Fort Payne!!! Always good to see new members from Bama. You will enjoy your time here on HF. The best people you could ever meet and plenty to learn and discuss. Again, welcome aboard.
I installed three 6x6 pressure treated posts that are 10 ft. long in my back yard. We can hang 3 hammocks at a time since they are in a triangular pattern. I put them in last summer. I used sacrete...
Hey MM, I would tell your co-worker to get a sleep study done if they haven't already. I have been wearing a CPAP for several years now. I never want to go without mine. I knew that I snored but I...
Good to see some more local hangers on here. I think my wife thinks I am a little crazy too, so don't sweat that. Maybe we are but they have their quirks too, not to mention their apparent hobbies...
Hey Dave, Just wanted to say that I am sorry to hear about your illness and that I too am behind you a hundred percent. My prayers and thoughts will be with you. You ARE going to beat this. Speaking...
I agree with Outandback,. I would use a compactor bag and put my down quilts in it and put my clothing items in a separate bag and put it in the compactor bag as well. The idea is to put stuff that...
Happy Birthday man. I am sure you will get even.:scared:
Hang in there brother! It's 12 out here on Lookout mountain just a few miles south of Fort Payne. Good luck to ya!!!!
Sold to Funny Money. Funds received. Mods, please remove. Thanks!
Sold to Funny Money pending funds.
PM replied. Still up for sale. Price is firm.
Sorry man but I'd have to stuff the toes with socks to get them to fit.:lol: After checking my notes it turns out I DID get the CDT in 2012, so it is a 2012 instead of 2011. I don't know if I can...
Yes I like the multi cam too. It was bought new in 2011 instead of 2012 as I originally had listed. That has been corrected as well.
Thanks JP! I fixed it. I had read that before but forgot to put it in.
Up for sale is a ULA CDT pack with all of the removable's including the hydration sleeve, internal mesh pocket, hand loops, water bottle loops, and thin foam pad. The pack is a size large and the...
Thanks Canteen Boy and Merry Christmas! Count me in.
Count me in. Merry Christmas and Thanks!!!
Welcome from Fort Payne! Where are you in north Alabama? There's quite a few Bama Hangers here on HF.
Hey man, congrats on the new quilts. Your trip sounds like fun. I hope you guys enjoy yourselves. These 70+ temps in December are crazy but I know it's about to change from what they say.
I agree with those that say hang onto it. I bought a Superfly first but after getting my wife a Blackbird too,I bought an Edge. She won't be winter hanging so I will use the Superfly when I do and...
Welcome from Alabama! Jump in with both feet and hang on!!!:lol:
Welcome to the forums from Fort Payne. Always good to see another hanger from Alabama on here. Good luck in your gear decisions! There's certainly a lot of options to choose from. HH.
Welcome neighbor from Fort Payne!
Hey man, sounds like my kind of luck.:laugh: Sorry your hang didn't go as planned. Maybe this didn't put the kibosh on her going again with you. Maybe you will get to make another hang together...
Congrats to all the new mods! I am sure you will all continue to the mission as mods by keeping this the same great site it has always been. Also I would like to thank the past mods for jobs well...
Jen, So sorry to hear about your father. I sympathize with you, I lost both of my parents in the last couple of years. It is hard enough when you expect it and have time to prepare but when it's...
Yes, you might as well just go ahead and get what you want to begin with. Shoot.... Don't be afraid!!! You might as well jump off the cliff like the rest of us have. I'm glad I did and you will be...
PM's sent as well.
I originally bought a Superfly and I love it. I just recently bought an Edge to use this summer. Of course it's not near as roomy as the SF but it gives plenty of protection for me and my Blackbird....
+1 on the Superfly!!! It is nice to have a tarp with doors.
Lots of coyotes here too. I live out in the country and they are all around. They go crazy howling every night when a train passes through in the valley below. They are right outside my garage...
Welcome brother from Ft. Payne. It's always good to see another hanger from Alabama here on HF, but it's especially nice to see a brother firefighter. I was over at Oxford about a week ago. Warm...
Congrats on the new gear and welcome to HF. I know what you mean, I am always anxious to play with any new gear I get too. :laugh:. There's always some new piece of gear I'm wanting. I just got some...
Got mine today Mike, Thanks a bunch!!!!
I'm in too.
Sorry, Just saw you are using pads for insulation under you. Missed that the first go round.:lol:
I agree with OneThing, you need to go to a local hang or at least find some other hangers in your area. They can help you decide on what you need for hanging in your area. You didn't say, but may I...
Glad you got to hang with your daughter. Sounds like you guys had fun. Enjoy it while you can, they grow up much too soon. I haven't made it over to sipsy yet but sure want too. Cheaha is another...
Congrats on your first solo!!! Glad you enjoyed it and all went well.
I hope to get out on a solo soon myself.

I will take it. Pm me your Paypal. Is the belt size large as well?
