Some folks just don't seem to just fall into things the right way, have a few bad experiences with hammocks and are ready to give up on them. Then they start asking questions and reading threads, and start learning. I know that I am 1 of those.

    I am an Assistant Scout Master, and soon to be Scout Master with a troop. My first experience with a hammock, was not the best. In fact after a week in one, I was almost ready to give it up. I found HF and realized, I had been hanging in all the wrong ways.

    Sounds like he is going to have a great Xmas.....RR


    You are awesome for being involved in Scouts. It's a great program but I can say that a troop is only as good as it's Scout Master and other leaders.
