Ha, thank you so very much for the kind words sir, I am trying to do better. thank you for watching and commenting and I hope you have a blessed week . Dale
In the Movie Civil War they show a scene where there are a lot of refugees camped in a stadium. It is interesting to see that half the tents were Springbar tents. Story line: Refugees know quality when the see it, or they stole them from a warehouse. Or more likely the director of props got a deal for the movie. Great advertisement.
Oh wow, I have not seen the movie. I noticed it out now, for some reason, I was thinking it was suppose to be out this fall. Thanks for sharing this with us and I hope you have a blessed weekend my friend. Dale
Its a great tent. I bought the Classic jack 140 earlier this year and so far have spent about 24 nights in the tent with the large winnerwell woodlander stove. Something I found helps shed water off the awning is raise the door side awning pole to its highest setting then the opposite pole lean the bottom towards the tent and rest it on the tent stake. Works well to shed water but you do lose a little head room. Another thing I found helpful was to use 3/8"x10" lag bolts with washers instead of the tent nail stakes. I drive the lag bots with my impact driver. So much easier to install and remove then the stakes. I do live in central Idaho and we have very rocky volcanic soil so might not be necessary where your at. Im getting ready to spend 14 nights in the tent for rifle elk season in about a week so Ill get to test in some colder temps.
That’s awesome news my friend. I love your ideas as well. I am currently camping in mine on a 18 day traditional bow hunt. Have basically the same stove. So far temps have been down into the 30’s at night. And I have been impressed with how well the wood burning stove works. Have you seen the flagship model with the awning pole in the center. I ordered an extra pole when I ordered rhe tent and made a leather strip with a loop for the tent pole to go into the center. Like you mentioned let the other two poles down and the rain runs off. They should just add they extra grommet in these tents. Just for that. Good luck on your elk hunt. We had elk steaks around rhe campfire last night one of rhe guys in our group got one in Colorado in September. Good luck and please let us know how your hunt goes. Until we meet in the woods one day have a blessed week my friend. Dale.
Was sitting here thinking as i watch, about a tent my family had years ago. Back in the mid to later 70s, my folks had an old canvas tent that we used when we went to camping all over the western U.S. Granted it wasnt fancy compared to today, but i do remember camping in that thing everywhere! Hope you make lots of memories with yours!
Oh man, you know it is highly possible it was made by this same company, The man who started this tent company was back in the 60's or so, his son runs it now. What a fun story, I hope to have this one all over the place as well. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed weekend my friend. Dale
Thank you so very much for the kind words. I have some camp style cooking videos coming up that will cover my time out camping. I’m fixing to do two weeks in this tent. I should have some fun videos from that adventure. Thanks so much for the kind words and I hope you have a blessed week. Dale.
Thank you so much kind sir. Since you know we have a two week trip coming very soon, I will be able to probably answer any questions a person can thank of by the time thanksgiving gets here. I know buster is excited and ready to go, I was looking for him earlier and he somehow had himself loaded in the jeep hahahah. He is like, you aint leaving with out me hahahah. He hates my moto camping trips. hahaha. Have a blessed week my friend and keep making the fun videos. Dale
Thank you so much kind sir. We are almost packed and ready. It is suppose to get really cold, and Oklahoma will disappoint with the string winds,. Thank you and I hope you have a blessed week my friend. Dale
@@HeartlandMakesAndOutdoors i’m sure you guys are gonna have a great time. Try to do some videos as you are enjoying your hunting camp. Good luck and God bless.
@@sigmanarchery54 Thank you sir, Yes sir, the last few years at deer camp, I have concentrated videos on the hunt. I am shift gears this year to concentrate more on the camping and camaraderie at camp. When I first started hunting this area, I was solo, although I am still considered solo, at this point, there is several of us solo hunters who have developed a small group if you will and I will be spending more time on that aspect go the camp. Thank you so much for the idea as it just reassures me I am on the right track. Thank you and I hope yall have a blessed week. Dale
That is an excellent review full of all the need to know details that a person considering one of these would need - I thank you for taking the time. Have you considered a small side bussiness in making and selling that middle leather gromet?
Thank you so very. much for the kind words my friend. I had not thought about making them and selling them, however, if you would like one, and you have Facebook or instagram, you an send me a private message on one of those platforms. Thanks again my friend. I hope you have a blessed week. Dale
I think the selling point for a large canvas tent is being able to put it up and take it down alone. I see some tents where it takes two people and a map to put the tent up. I had a tent like that and it forever and two days to put it up and that was with two other people! It was a mystery where what pole went where. So, I did buy a Springbar last year but am considering a very large tent, but I am just thinking of it now because they are expensive.
Agreed, the tent I purchased a year or two before this one was a tipi style tent and like you mentioned, 99% of the time I am camping its me and buster, so being able to set it up with one person is a must for me. I want to thank you for taking the time to watch and comment and I also need to say sorry,. I try to stay on top of all the comments and this one slipped by me somehow. Thank you and Again have a blessed weekend. Dale
Another great video Dale, you think I can fit that tent on the back of my KLR? Haha, just kidding. Wow you have a great setup that will serve you well for many years.
hahah, I know right, I think I could get the tent on the back, wold have to figure out a way to ship the legs to campsite. hahaha. Thanks for the kind words, I can see this things being an awesome one to pass down to the kids one day. Thank you for the kindness sir and I hope you have a blessed week. Dale
I've got an KLR and it should fit as long as it's the only thing you take. ;) I think I see a Ural sidecar motorcycle in my more comfortable Glamping style camping future.
Correction : I need to revise my statements, 10 ounce material on the roof, 8.5 ounce on the walls, Another viewer caught my mistake. Thank you
Darn Dale they need to hire you as a spokes person. Nicely done sir
