I am not sure how a hoodless bag works. Seems to me that the pad should be sticking out above the bag so your head would be laying on something if the bag only comes to your neck. But the pictures I've seen seem to show the bag still covering the pad on this Horse Thief. Can someone explain how this works?

I have this bag and I absolutely love it. It is hoodless but the airpad, make sure it is mummy cut of course, goes all the way to the top of the bag. I am 5'10" and the regular comes 2" above my head. There is a built in pillow case near the top so you can stuff a jacket into it for your pillow. Most importantly!!! There is no down underneath you where your pad goes so only the top portion of this bag is insulated. I used the BA Primaloft insulated aircore for this bag and together it's good like Batman & Robin. Because of the Primaloft, it insulates you from your body's warmth. I've used this bag in 30 degree weather and it kept me warm.
