Hello,
Last year a person joined our boy Scout troop and he brought along a Hennessy Hammock. I was instantly jealous and have hated him ever since. From that time till now I have been dreaming of getting my own hammock and my birthday is rapidly approaching.
I have been lurking for a little bit reading the forums, not as much as I should because I am lazy, and I have listened to a few of the podcasts; but, I think I have picked out what I want to get and I want to make sure that I do not make too many mistakes.
I believe that I have settled on Clark NX-270. I decided on this one for a few reasons. I like the interior pockets and because I do go on so many outings with Scouts the ability to zip myself up in a hammock for privacy to change or cry myself to sleep is very appealing. I realize that it is a very expensive starter hammock but I do want to save a little money. I sleep cold and right now Clark is offering their Z-Liner for $65 which is a really good deal. If I go for the underquilt would it work to save some money and get a Bear Butt or Chill Gorilla Tarp until I can upgrade?
Any advice is appreciated.
Sincerly,
A gear junkie.
