Nah it'll be alright. This one will do

Like Dino I've got both sizes of the North Ridge ones - on the big one I got a bag zip repair shop to reinforce the loops and they are all good.I use the small one mostly.
I replaced the rope with paracord, got 6x plastic pegs and sanded down the sharp edges on em and carry a 6x4 warehouse ultracheap blue tarp as a floor. If it rips another one is about $6.
Small one could sleep two if needed - I use stretchies to keep em taut and they are bloody good for hanging ya socks up inside at the end of a days hunting to dry out

I wouldn't go back to a tent unless I was down in sandfly country or up on the tops - if it's windy I back one end up to a big tree and put the open end downwind.

Im not much of a tent guy myself. I have a tarp for the ground so all goods there. Its getting warm now so it maybe time for the hennesy.

Hey toby those north rige big flys are huge.Me and a mate used one a few months back and it could have fit another 3 or 4 hunters aswell.Real good for more open bush as you can sling it up over a lot greater distance than a normal fly.Dosnt come with rope however from memory but we had taken cord with us.


Jase.

Yeah I am getting the smaller one. Once dino said about the size I measured it out and woah too big

Whatever blows your hair back toby.bale string will do fine providing you can get nice long lenths of it.para cord /and hoochie cord are just what most use.

What knots do you use to tie up your hoochies? I like using the handcuff knot to double figure 8 on the bite
