My 9 0z casual hammockView MessagesViewing posts 1 to 21 of 21 messages posted.
My 9 oz day hiking casual hammock.. “Some of you expressed an interest in my olive green mesh hammock while we were in the Yellow River State Forest..here's where you can get one all for yourself! 9 0z hammock” 4:22:43 PM 4/05/04 “Ah, BQ. The source for many things olive drab and camo.” 4:27:32 PM 4/05/04 I Like It “That's a pretty sweet hammock thingamajig for 9oz and $13. Was it hard or time consuming to "properly tie to metal rings" to turn it into a hammock?” 4:31:44 PM 4/05/04 “• Use as a Personal Camouflaging System for ambushes Hey matahari, is there something else we need to know about you? ;-)” 4:38:44 PM 4/05/04 eh eh eh.. “with a trailname like mine, hubcap, you think I'm talkin'!..and Buddur, it comes already attached to metal rings..one one each end plus 2 tie-out ropes..folds up into a ball about the size of a softball..and it's BIG BUCKS!” 4:49:29 PM 4/05/04 plus, I forgot to mention.. “you know how shy and reserved I am about my checkered past..how could you ask me such a thing, hubcap?” 5:13:08 PM 4/05/04 “I was so confused walking into Brown's Hollow. There was one camping hammock set up... and then another net hammock. (I think she really killed someone to get that second hammock.. I mean, look at her name! And we weren't around to know. AND SHE WAS ALWAYS WORRIED ABOUT CUTTING HEADS OFF!!! She's a sneaky one, that mhh) LOL!” 5:14:40 PM 4/05/04 “How is this any better than the classic mesh hammock at wallyworld?” 5:31:25 PM 4/05/04 Mutt.. “for one thing, it's green, not white..it's also smaller and compacts better..try and roll a hammock with spreader bars to the size of a softball (wink)” 5:38:23 PM 4/05/04 Byer “I like my Byer hammock, even tho it can's be used for camo, or a dipnet, or a dunk bag, at least it can be used for sleeping. And that's what it is great for. And at $19.95 and 11 oz. it is a better deal IMHO. byer hammock” 5:39:38 PM 4/05/04 about cutting heads off! “I didn't do it! and, I have the proof in the photo..LOL..don't believe anything that peep-murdering Lizs tells you about me..” 5:40:10 PM 4/05/04 “If it's smaller, it's weaker and/or less durable. The classic been-around-forever mesh hammock doesn't have spreader bars, and packs to roughly softball size, probably a little larger, depending on quality. I guess your hammock mesh is more versatile, but I haven't come across a situation where I thought "gee, I wish I had a net that could double as a hammock."” 5:41:52 PM 4/05/04 “well, I've been using my original for over 10 years now..it's just for hanging around camp and on the trail..not for overnight sleeping..the picture is rather mis-leading..it is just a green, nylon mesh hammock with rings at each end attached to green, nylon hanging rope..pretty simple..I do not like white hammocks..if you do then you're lucky as they're easy to find..” 5:48:25 PM 4/05/04 “Not trying to piss on your parade, mataharihiker. So it's just a regular ol' net hammock, but colored green. Okay. I bring one along every trip. Two, if I'm basecamping/dayhiking.” 5:51:24 PM 4/05/04 “i thought making hammocks used to be a great commune activity (or still is)-only they call it something else now.(intentional communities?) just buy a kit, make your own, and sell the remainder www.bushkit.com to make back the money on the kit. kinda like macrema” 5:58:10 PM 4/05/04 “matahari - hubcap was just hoping maybe you'd loosened up a bit and were finally willing to talk. :) lizs was only killing the peeps as an example - to keep us in line. :)” 6:00:44 PM 4/05/04 “if I made it I wouldn't lie on it..LOL..yep, it's nothin' special but some folks asked me where I got it this week-end so I thought I'd let them know..and, like you, I also bring 2 every trip..it's an addiction, isn't it? I have 3 hanging around the house in the summer..” 6:02:19 PM 4/05/04 “Cool! what do you do, screw something in to wall studs? or how do you hang them in your house?” 6:04:19 PM 4/05/04 “not in, outside..this means no hammock use all winter..so sad..” 6:14:34 PM 4/05/04 “Oh, *around* the house. I get it.” 6:15:33 PM 4/05/04 “Mutt meet mataharihiker >> she likes hammocks mataharihiker meet Mutt>> he likes to climb trees somehow I think this friendship *COULD WORK!!*” 9:38:51 PM 4/05/04
