    My new (to me) Dream Hammock Thunderbird! No feet!

    Just got this thing in the mail on Monday. I normally HATE camo, but this is a single layer of 1.8 "Night Grid Camo" that is 11ft long, with both a fully removable bugnet and top cover. Really digging the fabric. Doesn't look very camo'y. Was too good of a deal to pass up. Came with 2 ridgeline organizers and a sewn in pocket. Awesome craftsmanship, PapaSmurf.

    Really like the looks of these hammocks! Thinking about getting one soon
    Dale Gribble: I'm thinking, "new hammock." For me, laying and swaying in a hammock is like a steady morphine drip without the risk of renal failure.

    Randy : yea but just remember yer roots and where ya come from....you got Hennessy in yer blood son......

    NewtonGT, better than 'looks' is how they sleep! My DB72 is far more comfortable than a select comfort bed, and when the girlfriend isn't sleeping over, I'm hanging in it. I'm about to order another one, but a Thunderbird this time most likely.

    Oh yeah, with almost 2 years of daily (nightly) use, the DB72 is still in great shape. Craftsmanship makes all the difference. Wish my DIY were so good, but I wanted what I could not achieve for myself that Randy delivers.

    I get paid tomorrow and if im where I think I am with extra cash then I might make that purchase tomorrow! But I need to email randy about some questions on fabrics, they look to be made with incredible quality! Im glad yours has lasted so long!

    NewtonGT, I have a Thunderbird and I can tell you that you will be happy with the quality of the hammock. Randy and his crew really do excellent work and offer customer service that is just outstanding. I purchased mine from someone who just wanted his hammock to be a little wider. He sold the Thunderbird to me and turned around and bought a Dangerbird from DH that was wider. These hammocks are just outstanding.
