yep, I agree!! Or it could have been what did kill that tree. That tree was smaller, maybe the larger tree was able to repair itself better. I really don't know, I'm no tree expert.
I just think that if we're trying to teach people how to hang and if they see a bolt in "our" trees and we're sort of looked at as "professional" hangers, that even if they don't ask about that bolt, they tend to repeat what they saw. From my experience alone, I never even thought about those bolts in the oak trees, I just thought that that was the way to hang a hammock. I never gave it a second thought either until I started using a "camping" hammock. I just think now, that hammock companys should try to enlighten people that buy their hammocks and not just include those metal bolts or directions saying things like, just an easy hook up to your eye bolt.
