    Hmm, not tried them bit I got to tell you if you are going two person and need there to be two persons in the shelter then a tent , IMO is better than a bivy, but if you are going light, and there does not need to be two people inside then a hammock is a better option.

    Hey bud I fly camp a bit this piece of kit looks good and cheap but you need a few more pieces of kit to go with it.When I fly camp I use a bivi bag and two tarps from the wharehouse, Ground sheet and fly and a bivi bag I find these three bits keep me dry and a mate as the tarps cover a fair bit of ground.

    as you can see even with a hunting mate that brings the kitchen sink there is still room.If you hunt the tops buy a Tent with a floor.

    Good luck.
