    Thumbs up This is addicting....

    so i just sat down and realized that this is addicting...

    i originally bought a Eno DN because, well i didnt know there were other options. i love my eno, but i dont see it as a "serious" hammock (for camping etc) when you compare to things like claytors and WBBB

    so my wife wanted to get in on the action, so i ordered her a "starter" GT UL to see how she liked being out with me. at the same time i ordered me some TRIglides (even with the issues) so she could take over the slapstraps...but they sent the wrong color and now we have 2 GT's...

    and last night i saw about the REI sale on Eno DN's and i got 2 more! One for her as her main, and another for me to keep in the car as a spare and recreational hammock.

    Not to mention since i havent been seriously camping in a while ive been gathering pieces of gear as money allowed.

    now i just have to come up with a tarp and/or bugnet (or a WBBB) and im set

    my wallet hurts but i couldnt be happier...

    Get a second job..it only gets worse, haha. I just ordered a 2nd blackbird, only had the first one out twice, traveler once, and hennessy twice, haha. At one point I had 3 hennesys, I now only have one, two blackirds, one traveler, and one gt ultralight. Haha. I've owned more hammocks than trips I've taken. Haha

    Nothing "un-serious" about your gear if it works and you enjoy it!

    I stumbled into this hammock stuff a few years back now.and I really enjoy it. The kids love it and it does not cost me $40.00 bucks (@ 10 gallons) to do it everytime..
    I can hang right hear at home..
    and camp here.
    Yes sir, this is addicting.....so I reckon we are all your co-dependants.......

    Hi, my name is Don, and I am a Hammoholic. That just sounds funny. Guess I won't go to the meetings either. Lol

    Nothing wrong with an ENO. It's a perfectly fine camping hammock. Lots of folks on HF use them. Just not the slap straps. I use a Trek Light hammock, which is very similar to the ENO. It's a very comfy hammock, and for me it's all about comfort.
