Sayoung , I'm 70 and checking in from Austin. I've an ENO Doublenest Deluxe , a rain fly and a very old spreader bar netting hammock. I planted a 4X6 post near our patio shade tree (Oak) with lots of good filtered shade for serious napping. Next is putting together some type of sleep system. Hammocks are suspended ( one at a time ) by long ( 12') straps and steel rings ( AKA 2 ring buckle ) all secured with knots.

Hello and welcome from Marietta GA. Happy hanging!
Welcome sayound to Hammock Forums and let us know if you have any questions. It's great to see other "mature" members around here. This isn't just a young mans game.
Glad to have you aboard. I've got a daughter in Texas, over near Canton.
Cheers.
"...the height of hammock snobbery!"
A big hearty welcome from a fellow Austinite. I wonder how many of us there are on here. Perhaps we should look at organizing a local hang at some point.
Howdy from Lubbock! I second the notion of a local hang sometime, I'm willing to drive a bit to learn a lot!
Hello from nw Austin as well.
Welcome from Arkansas!
Howdy and welcome to the trees, err stand.Originally Posted by sayoung
There are lots…
Next hang is next week, MLK weekend at McKinney Falls State Park, come on by and say hi.
I've been to Lubbock, one has to drive a bit just to find a pair of trees.Seriously though there are a number of hangers out your way too.
Scroll through the trip planning forum and you'll see there's a few hangs around the Austin area as well as around the state.
