something like that in the tent would make it hard to hunt much!

 And exactly what happens to him.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Mine is easily the best $150 spent on hunting yet.
And they are a snap to setup. On mine, the bud screen is 4 sections of 12 ft. That is 48 ft long.  :yike:
You just hook one end and walk around the frame and tuck.

The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

Concerning pop up canopies, you get what you pay for.
In my business I have used them a lot, currently own 2 EZ UP commercial grade 10x10's. For a true commercial grade, you will be paying for it (mine cost $900 each, when purchased nearly 20 years ago) and are very strongly built. To stake them down, use a screw in stake that is made for tying a dog lead to, will keep it grounded in very strong winds. I have zero experience with snow load.

I use 2 like you show, obviously not for everyone, the sides are not as thick as the roof. I also use the screw in dog stakes in all corners or six if I have both of them up in a 10X20. I use heavy 12ft ratchet straps in the corners and they have held up in the wind. I only have lost one to the wind where I hunt (204) because I set it up went out to hunt for the day and it was not staked down.
When I pass, do not let my wife sell the guns for what I told her they cost.

I have four, three of the cheap ones we used at soccer games and the Sundshade I use for hunting. Night and day difference in durability.
