I have seen many guys use a hammock for one or two nights but then they either leave early or swap it out for a tent.

I have several friends who use hammocks religiously for multiday trips.  The trend I have noticed is that they are all back sleepers. 

I sleep on my stomach and have a really hard time in a hammock.  It's bad enough that no coercing from my friends Jim and Jack will help me sleep.

I liked to get dressed out of the rain and keep my gear dry!
