They have some great deals from time to time, and in my opinion offer a quality product. With that said, I'm trying a hammock and tarp setup for my next solo hunt. It's pretty damn light and doesn't take up much room compared to even my Shangri_la5. I like the go-lite tents also, tried the SL-3 but I am to tall for it. They have the SL-5 on thier website listed for 299.00 right now, but they are out of stock and won't back order.They will have some more. It's just because of the price that they sold out. Lots of times they will have sales and everything will be "temporarily out of stock" for a while. I've got the 5 and the footprint is about 9' 5" by 9' 5". I'm guessing that when you say to tall it's when you were laying down in the 3?

yes, mine has the loop. Just didn't have a sturdy branch handy where I wanted to set up the tent. Also the ground I was on was pretty moist.
Been through lots of tents:Sierra Design Clip Flashlight is ok and is what I used to have for hunting.but new Big Agnes cannot be beat for lightweight. Even the kids can carry that tent. It weighs less that a sleeping bag. Don't know about bad weather, but for fall/summer the way to go. Neither is 100% free standing. It is very tight for two--but one with gear fine.
