Outdoor Hammocks
The two words outdoor and hammocks fit together perfectly. While I have got hammocks indoors in my home at the moment, the bulk of hammocks are used outdoors. There are three main places or types of areas where most hammocks are used. If you discount other niche areas where I have seen hammocks hung up, like music festivals and the beach, these three groups tend to cover the bulk of the uses.
There are other people that use hammocks on a daily basis and I haven’t allowed for these types of people in this article. For example truckers in Thailand all have hooks mounted in the back of their trucks and when they stop they simply hook it up and sleep.
Resorts.
I allow that resorts cover all different types of hotel and holiday accommodation places. It is great that it is generally the advertising agencies that promote hammock sales for us manufacturers by doing adverts with hot bikini girls in hammocks. Having said that I found that it was the smaller more personal type of bed and breakfast or backpacker that tended to place the real orders. These resorts knew very well that this lifestyle quality detail gave them huge repeat business.
I am based in South Africa and the game lodges were perfectly suited to a high quality hammock. My personal experience found that the hammock chair tended to be more popular as it was more social as anti-social. A few of the lodges that tended to not skimp on the details around the boma or fire areas were the ones that were receiving the most results. It makes sense that if someone sits comfortably around a blazing fire in the bushveld that they would have fond memories of that resort.
Private home use.
The biggest market for hammocks is in the general home use category. There is not a particular type of hammock that is more prevalent here. There are equally as many lightweight parachute type fabric hammocks, as there are large family sized double padded luxury hammocks. The size of the entertainment areas in the yards of your home generally helps make the decision as to which hammock to buy.
As we are discussing outdoor hammocks here I would like to point out that the other huge hammock population is the many people that us their hammocks every night to sleep in at home.
Hiking and camping.
The final large group of hammock users is the hiking and camping crowd. This portion of the hammock market is probably the most loyal (fanatical). The reason it is safe to say this is that even the guy that really uses his hammock a lot at home generally only lies around in it a bit on the weekends. Now a hiker or camper spends many a happy weekend tramping around in natures most beautiful places, and living in their hammocks.
These guys can tell you the real stories about their hammock adventures. They live life large. Good for them. Outdoor hammocks are perfectly suited to this pastime. Go and get yourself fitted today.
