    HF Classic Threads - The Evolution of Dutch Tarp Flyz

    I have no idea how I ended up on this (closed) thread, but it's a doozy!

    https://hammockforums.net/forum/show...-9-Improvement

    A couple of observations:

    1. Dutch was a Chatty Cathy back then!
    2. Almost everyone commenting in the thread was at one time a mod.

    Great to see how a product like Flyz started!

    I just read 10 pages. It was amazing! Thanks for sharing.
    Get lost in the woods and find yourself again. A vacation,to me, is working with your hands and surviving because of the fruits of your labor. In the business world I teach;in the natural world I learn.

    I miss those days. It was friends collaborating coming up with solutions. There were no newbs because we all were newbs just trying to figure things out. Nostalgia!!!! Like I said, I really miss those days.

    Rest in peace, Keith. He gave me some free Dutch Bling several years ago at fall MAHHA.
