    New Guy here in Central IL

    Been in here lurking because google keeps bringing me back. I just had my first hang overnight a week ago to test out a SBpro. I got a deal from amazon last year but had never used it. I used a reflective auto shade and my 0 rated mummy bag and was plenty warm, but it was only in the 40's so not too cold. lol I did fold in the tarp on one end to close it off.

    I all ready upgraded my suspension after that first hang but haven't been able to try it yet. I got whoopies and AR to play with.

    Now I'm thinking DiY 2 layer hammock and have been looking at tutorials and some designs. Planning an order to RSBTR and I don't even have an injector.

    Thanks guys

    Welcome! Keep your eye on the hangouts/gathering section here. There seems to be a consistent gathering at the I&M canal. I am hoping to get out to one soon. It might be withing range for you as well.
