    March Madness! (Hammock Edition)

    I thought it would be fun to set up a bracket and vote to see which is the king of all hammocks.

    Let's take a few days to let everyone nominate a few hammocks to appear in the "Swinging 16" bracket. I'll then take those nominations and set up a bracket and we can vote on each hammock.

    I'll keep everything in this thread, so be sure to read through the thread to see where we are before voting.

    Have fun and root for your hammock!
    With beauty all around you, may you walk.

    NOMINATION TIME
    List your three favorite even if they are the same. *The top 16 nominated hammocks will make up the "Swinging 16".
    Nominations end Sunday night the 24th.

    I'll start the nominations by suggesting these 3:

    ENO doublenest
    Warbonnet Blackbird
    Grand Trunk UL
    With beauty all around you, may you walk.

    Surely the Clark NX-250 will make the list.

    Also, the DD Frontline gets my nomination - it is a great hammock with lots of features that doesn't get near enough credit.

    do we need DIY categories?
