Since the bridge hammocks have no sag in the middle, does anyone experience cold butt syndrome using them?

There is a little sag to a bridge hammock, but not as much as a gathered end. That being said, when i get cold in my ridgerunner it tends to be more in my lower back. Bridge or gathered, if you don't have proper insulation, you're still going to be cold.
I get some cold shoulder and back sometime
It would help if you mentioned what insulation you are using when you respond to this thread as well.
Proper rigging of the UQ is crucial is in any hammock. Brandon designed the Lynx UQ for the Ridgerunner and I am often surprised more folks don't use it.

Bridge hammocks form an hour glass shape when occupied. If your UQ comes above the center of hammock it will take the path of least resistance and go in a straight line. The UQ will not be against the hammock at this point letting cold air in. It will look fine before occupied. Either use an UQ designed for a bridge hammock or pin the UQ to sides of hammock where the opening occurs.
I learned this the hard way. Coldest night ever was with a big warm UQ on a bridge hammock.
