Yetti Net

Post by FIST TEAM LTR »

Can anyone tell me if they still make the GP net or "Yetti Net" we used to call it.
We used them for hammocks mostly. I checked a bunch of surplus places but come up empty handed.

Thanks

I have one still. I use it on my deer and turkey stands, have about 25 hours and a case of beer into burlap, old camos and other earth tone cloth woven in it. It's better than any 3-d pattern I can find.
I want another. Anyone know where I can get one???

AKA as the GP Medium Net.

One of the coolest pieces of gear, ever, IMO.

It was great for camo, if you wanted to weave local flora into it, and it made a superb hammock.

I WISH that I still had one. I would put it up in my garden.

I spraypainted mine and added just a few pieces of burlap to break it up but still keep the weight down.
