    My first convert....

    Well, I think I have converted my first ground dweller. My camping buddy from work saw my hammock setup a while back, then went camping with another friend that was a hanger, and so we discussed it a bit this morning....and....BAM, he ordered 2 Skeeter Beater Pros and 2 Noah 12 tarps. Not the lightest weight setup, but it is what I started with, and he and his wife can setup under one tarp, or is they chose, setup separately. He seems excited to try them out...I am sure he won't go back to a tent again once they get them dialed in.
