I bought these to use for there intended purpose. Ended buying a SO Cimarron later. Connected the sticks backwards and added small Velcro wrap to each stick and ended up with an awesome adjustable tent pole.
I set mine up inside out on the second half so I could reach everything easier from the inside. I ran out of seam sealer halfway through and had to order more.
I chose goats because of their agility and ease of handling. They are a much smaller investment also. I can haul them in my pickup. Mine aren’t old enough to pack yet. Going on 2 years old. They are fun animals to interact with.
