    Sorry for taking a while to respond. I've been fielding PMs and neglected to come back to the public board. Yes, shipping is included, I do PayPal, and the stuff sack and tree straps are included.

    SOLD: Wilderness Logics Night Owl

    Bought in mid-September for $115, used twice. I hung it many different ways and found that it was just too short for my 6'6" frame, despite being a foot longer than a standard gathered-end hammock....

    I should've been clearer on that point. I never got a really got lay; I just didn't notice how bad it really was until I'd spent 10-20 minutes in the position and the muscle knots started to set it....

    Had my first hang last night, and I wish I had better news to report. I tried two different pairs of trees, with the whoopie slings set at many different lengths and the tree huggers set at many...
  6. Tying whoopie slings directly to tree hugger straps

    I want to set up my new WL Night Owl for the first time today, but I only have the hammock, the whoopie slings, and the tree hugger straps--no toggle for a marlin spike hitch, or carabiners. Is this...

    Just as I was about to take a motorcycle ride into the mountains today, I glanced at my front porch and noticed a small package. I assumed it had to be my copy of Ed Speer's Hammock Camping, which...

    How many days do these hammocks usually take to arrive? I'm itching to try mine while the weather's still somewhat warm.

    BigRed77, if you decide to go with the Owl, please do let us know how you think it compares to the WBBB in terms of space. You're pretty close to my size, and the BB would've been my second choice.
  10. I just bought the Night Owl. I had ruled out the...

    I just bought the Night Owl. I had ruled out the WBBB and Traveler due to the likely space restriction, and it was down to a Night Owl or a Hennessy. The extra length and open-air design of the Owl...
  11. Why does the 9'9" Claytor JH have a reputation for being "long"?

    Claytor's site gives the Jungle Hammock's length as 9'9", which is 117". Claytor claims the JH is long, and I keep seeing people on these forums say so as well. Claytor even claims the JH will...

    Hammocking seems to be such an individualistic pursuit that just about any route I go runs some risk of not working out. I've just about reached research saturation, where any new searches I try only...

    Hey DGHPTS,

    I see you're in Utah, as am I. Where in Utah is this place? I might have to stop by myself.

    Yeah, comfort is everything to me. I hardly care about pack weight at all. I'd even go for something like that brontosaurus-sized Chrysalis, if I thought it would fit the bill (which it doesn't; too...

    I barely know how to use a sewing machine and don't see that working out very well. I'd rather pay for my rig in dollars than aggravation.

    I've been trying to research the WL Night Owl ever since...

    Tall Man in a Quandary

    It's time to buy a hammock, but the huge range of options has given me decision paralysis. I've literally spent 20 hours over the last few days researching hammocks on the Internet, and hardly feel...

    Just looked at the Claytor site, and they say the NoNet will accommodate up to 6'7", 300 pounds. I'll be getting that. I think the Army surplus store around the corner might have that very one, so...

    And the Claytor will definitely fit a guy of 6'6"?

    And yeah, timabababaluka--it's a beautiful area. I love never being more than 10 minutes from total solitude in the outdoors.
  21. Please recommend a cheap first hammock for a large noob

    Hello,

    I'm a 6'6", 250-pound guy looking for a cheap first hammock--preferably $50 or less--so I can get some idea of whether this sleeping method is for me. I don't want to spend a lot to begin...
