    Hello from Yorkshire, UK

    Hello everyone,

    My name is Shaun and I am about to buy a hammock.

    I have decided on a Hennessy Explorer Deluxe, but am still thinking over the insulation options.

    Although at the moment I am thinking about getting the Super Shelter, though I may be making two orders, in the hope of getting something really good in the Sale.

    I appreciate that everyone has their own views on what is good, it seems to be an under quilt is the best, but I don't get to camp outside in the winter so I shouldn't need that much insulation as I'm a warm sleeper.

    Anyway it's been great reading about everyone's experiences and advice and I'll be back once I have my rig set up to see what changes I can make.

    Welcome to HF from Georgia! Once you get started with your hangs you'll find that you'll keep extending your time outside throughout the year.
