I agree on the contacting Clark. There must be something wrong. I just spent a week at a BSA camp, Camp Rainy Mtn. It lived up to its name. It rained hard with blowing rain every night between 11pm...

My most comfortable hammock by far is my ENO. My Clark is mosquito proof but too hot for Fl summers. But with the ENO and either a DIY bugnet or the ENO bug net I have never had a problem as both...
I use an ENO pro-pac pillow. When unfolded it has a hollow pocket in the middle. The pocket has successfully held a Glock 19, Ruger .357, and a full size colt govt mod (not at the same time lol). ...
I have a Clark NX-250 and an ENO. The ENO is the more comfortable (and sooo much cheaper) of the 2. I use the Clark when I need to stay warm if that's a consideration for you. I know you can stay...
I'm not a nylon expert either, but that is exactly what mine did every time I used them.
Got whoopies now, but I really wanted to like those slap straps. If I could find some from no-stretch poly...
I have an NX-250 for cold weather, but my ENO is the go to for comfort. Nothing sleeps better.
I just tried an image search on google. There is an outfit called "Madera hammock stands" that has something similar for sale, but real easy to make once you see the pics
You can bolt 2 poles together at the tops like an A-frame. Make sure it is the proper height at top. Attach your hammock at the top on one side. On the other side run a strong line to an anchor in...
That's great, I won't have to lug that camo netting anymore? Thanks for actually doing the work while I was just griping.
I don't have a Facebook but good luck to both of you. I've watched your videos so much I feel like we are old friends. They are messing up if they don't use you both.
I ordered my whoopie slings about an hour ago just hoping they would get here before a camp out next weekend. I already got the notice that they have shipped. This was without mentioning any...
Thanks Jazilla, that looks awesome and pretty simple. I think I'll give it a try unless someone posts an even better idea. Thanks again for pointing it out.
Hey all. I am an asst scoutmaster. This year for summer camp our scouts chose a place with few if any available trees. Does anyone know of a good portable stand ? Since its going to be in June I...

Thanks
I agree with Bradley. I'd rather sleep in the truck than on the ground.
I really like my vertex fly. The granite gear white lightening avail on amazon for $184 has fairly comparable specs @ 10' x 10' / 1 lb 5 oz. it also has a cat cut like the vertex.
I don't remember the name brand , but the $2.50 pillows from Wally's fit all of my NX-250 pockets just fine. They fill the pockets to the point that they sealed against each other and didn't leave...
I just came back from a weekend in the woods. I tried the pillows in the pockets. Unfortunately since the temp never dropped below the low 40's it wasn't the best test. That being said, I did get a...
I did a little experimenting today. Standard size hollowfill pillows ($2 at wal mart) fit just about right in the Clark pockets. They snug right up to each other leaving no gaps. Looked like it...
I just bought the foot end of the z-liner. I bought 3 pillows from wal-mart and cut them in half to stow in the pockets on my NX-250. Has anyone tried the pillow thing ? Did it work ? If I put...
Well thanks, y'all. You sure know how to put out the welcome mat. Evidently there is another stumpknocker out there also. I'll have to keep an eye out for him.
Thanks all for the warm welcome. Ocala sounds good. Yukon & 2Questions, I don't think I'm the "infamous" one. Prob not me in Pa but I'll try to live up to the title.
Hey, from central Florida. I've lurked here for quite a while and finally joined up this past year. I've never posted until today, I didn't have much to talk about with just an ENO and a blue Wally...
When I was a kid I saw an old military hammock in the army surplus store. It was the coolest thing in the world, but the was no money for such things. I slept in borrowed tents or under the truck...
