What an urban cowboy, zip offs and a Tilley hat. looks like you had a good time. What are you recommending for an overnight hammock with no net these days?
@canoedad2 yeah, I was the REI cowboy, I'm sure those real cowboys were snickering at me behind my back. Haven't got a recommendation for a commercial overnight no-net, sorry, because nearly all my overnights have been in netted commercial versions, or DIY rigs of my own. Thanks for watching!
That ENO double is my go-to napping hammock when I have a car to haul it around, or a daypack if I'm on day hike and am going to get to relax along the way. There's too much "wall" for me to want to try and use it overnight, but the parachute nylon is soft and passes sweat through easily. I've got the Guardian bugnet for it too, which is quite nice, if a bit heavy. You use the right tool for the job!
I was in that exact same model ENO in Chicagoland yesterday at an outdoor Shakespeare Fest. While all the others were hurting their backs in folding chairs, I was in a secluded area, stage left, in a grove of oaks, reclining in the ENO, half asleep. There were no cows to rustle. It's good to see a hammock maven like yourself, Grizz, still using the lowly ENO. LOL I'm kidding. It's a sweet hammock. Sort of.
@runningstreammx Ha! Not on my calfs. But almost half the herd we moved were frisky calves and you better believe they got a lot of pressure to "move along little doggie"
@AmJustDuane Thanks...and it was only a relatively small part of the real working cowboy's day. Once we got that herd up into the corral, they stayed behind to vaccinate them. The guy who works the back end of the cow comes back in interesting shades of green, smelling, ah, organic.

@RedwoodOutdoors That's an understatement. Chasing cattle beats boring meetings, methinks.
