    Please help a neophyte hanger

    Can someone recommend a solid three season underquilt that won’t break the bank? My current hammock is a BearButt Double 11’, however, I will likely upgrade to a new hammock next winter. Thanks!

    If you hang around these forums long enough, you'll likely find someone willing to part with a used one at a good price. My tarp, UQ, and TQ are all pre-owned from here or elsewhere.

    Check out the Shamu from Molly Mac Gear: http://www.outdoortrailgear.com/feat...mu-underquilt/
    Can't beat it for $135; it will easily get you down to 40*, and it gets me down to freezing as long as I have it properly hung. Check out my review of it in the Molly Mac Gear forum under vendors for more of my story with it. Great piece of gear!

    +1 for hammock gear underquilts they have an econ version which I have also heard many many good things about. I have three of their underquilts and I like them all!

    The hammock gear Econ line is a great deal. I bought a 40 degree set and it's very nice, BUT, in hindsight, I really wish I'd have bought the 20 degree set. I like my 40's, and they are great down to at least that, but here we are almost in April and it's still in the low to mid 20's at night in NW Ohio. It's all good though...I am just going to get a ZERO degree set and I think between that and my set of 40's, I'll be good for any weather that I would want to be hanging in.
    Still, I think best bang for the buck would be be a single 20 degree set...but hey, it really depends on how LOW a temp you want to be comfortable in.
