    Shepherd hook style still available?

    I was on the web site and noticed that the staple style stakes are the only option listed. Am I missing the others somewhere or have they been discontinued?

    Best fabric for Raven?

    unicornv007,

    Are any camo colors in the works? A Woodlands camo like the 1.6 HyperD would be great.
