I went with the high wind package.  The only decision I have to make is how big to make the awning.  My thought is to order the Snow Slide longer than the tent so I can extend it to make the awning.  I was thinking of doing the 15x24, but may need to go a little bigger.  Everything is being made to be reversible with dual stove jacks (opposite corners), front and back doors with screens....so I can just turn the snow slide around to depending on the side I want to run the awning / stove.  Both sides will allow for the angle kits to extend beyond the corners for awnings or to pair additional tends in the future.  It will have a floor, two windows, stove package, high wind package, double door, webbing reinforced eaves, steel frame with added rafter for extra stability, extra angle kit for awning, room divider, heat shields.....etc.  Really went all out as this will be the last wall tent I have to buy.....and will likely be able to pass it down to my kids. 

Waiting for it to be built is almost as bad as waiting for my suppressors!!!!  It is hard to sleep at night thinking about it.     :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:  Can't wait for the first hunting trip.

That is a very nice setup.  You'll be ready for the Zombie Apocalypse!  The Bravo is a well-made tent; take care of it and you will be passing it down to the kids.

Wall tents are sweet. We have a 14x16 Davis wall tent. we have slept 4 but if you have more than that you will need a bigger tent.
with that said I am making a wall tent Hybrid, When its done I will be sharing.
If its brown knock it down

Some really great set ups here. Makes me super jealous. We always hunted from a trailer or backpack type tent. But I have a question,......do you use a seperate tent for the hot tub?    :dunno:

First tent arrived and has been set up.  This is the smaller of the tents purchased and will be used as the weekender / quick deploy dent for small hunts / excursions.  It is a Kodiak Canvas 10x14.  These tents get great reviews so I'm pretty excited to put it through the paces.  So far I'm pretty impressed....though I will say that it isn't in the same class a true canvas wall tent.  With that said, it is crazy easy to put up and is super packable.  There is quite a bit of room in it as you can see with the pics.
