looking for a big tent for the lease. - 09/07/15 03:00 AM

I'm looking for one of those military style tents or a party tent that I can use as a place to stay while at the deer lease. I know I can check military surplus places but I don't wanna break the bank. Any tips suggestions ect are welcome. I live in San Antonio

Those "surplus's" are your best bet local, I know there are also some sold online by folks that deal in them. No matter where you go, they wont be cheap, unless you find an individual with one to sell.

I had a GP 18' diameter tent for many years, the quality is insane even in a 1948 model, but an outfitters tent may be easier to get. I almost got this one before we bought the toyhauler, great reviews and nice for the $.

Or, look into a Yurt style tent.

No cheap way out though.
