    Dutch is now trying to actively screw over other cottage vendors.

    It is a shame when a giant in the hammock cottage industry has to actively undercut his competition. In this case, Dutch is actively undercutting Dream Hammock. Dutch's latest DIY instructions are an exact copy of how to make a Dream Hammock gear hammock. If you go to the DIY section of Dutch's website it's right there to see.


    It's even more audacious because Dutch just recently won a Dream Hammock Raven with gear hammock/storage bag at the TN Hootenanny hang. Apparently he has PERFECTLY deconstructed Dream Hammock's work down to the way Randy and crew trim their zippers. If you have bought a Dream Hammock Gear Hammock since they officially released them 6 months ago, look at it. Follow Dutch's direction and then try to tell me he didn't just release directions that undercut Dream Hammock. The only way Dutch could be more blatant in what he's doing is if his last step included placing a Dream Hammock label on the finished product.

    I agree, it was out of line. It was a tutorial and not a product for sale, but we are pulling the article. Didn't meant to offend.

    I saw a vendor win raffle stuff before. That same vendor had also donated a TON of very expensive gear. Nobody there complained.

    Dude you are way classy...I may have been tempted to spout off at the OP if I was in your shoes. You have shown us all a great example of internet restraint.
