Best knot to tie a strap around a tree?

... It’s one of those things, you get to choose your own style and you are free to change just for fun.

That's me too! Constantly playing with alternative rigging for the hammock and tarp just cuz it's fun and even leads to an improvement now and then. Not to mention that it keeps the vendors happy.

Running bowline, and if you are gonna tie a loop and run end through loop. An alpine butterfly loop will hold too and it resists jamming.
Lots of great ways to meet suspension challenges, and they most all work great.
You can go to a big hammock hang and see five dozen hammocks. And it’s rare to see multiple hammocks and tarps rigged in exactly the same way. It’s one of those things, you get to choose your own style and you are free to change just for fun.

I agree 100%
Thanks Joe

One knot not mentioned is the "what knot".

Haha, I thought you were making a pun on “whatnot”. I wonder if we might eventually run out of words to name knots!

Thanks for the additional suggestions guys.

Actually I was just kidding......

For a loop, I would use a figure 8 loop.
