Title: Camp Cot
Post by: washelkhntr on September 26, 2010, 08:08:11 PM: I'm in the market for a camp cot. The one I liked was the Cabela's XL, but they are back ordered and have no estimated delivery date. Imagine that. I don't really feel like being the only guy sleeping on the ground this year.

Any other recommendations and why?

I take it to work and sleep on it if any of the guys or gals are known snorers! It sure is a great thing to have after a long day of hunting, a cot beats the ground any day!

Once you lay in one you will see what I mean

Raz,
Thank you! If I haven't made a purchase by the 17th of October I might have to take you up on that offer.
