Hunting partner that snores??

I’ve had my share of sharing rooms on hurricane works with guys that snore. Ear plugs and Benadryl work but it makes me recall a story from a storm.

Two guys on my crew roomed together for the first time on I believe. Hurricane Irma. So the next morning. I was told of how bad one guy snored. The one guy could not sleep for the snoring. So in the middle of the night. The other guy woke up to the sleepless guy standing over him in his underwear coming at him with a pillow. So as the story is being told the snoring guy informs us all that sleepless guy was wearing bikini underwear as he was coming at it with a pillow and he wasn’t over the side of the bed he was standing on the bed straddle of the bed coming at him with the pillow. Still have not decided if it was for suffocation or he was just going to beat the crap out of him with the pillow.
 
My dad has a cpap machine and the last time we camped he ran it on a trolling motor battery. It kinda made for nice ambient white noise.
 
When I was younger if I even had a whimper of a snore I instantly woke up realizing I made some ungodly noise.....Now today, I can't hear for shit, have bad allergies and a deviated septum and sound like a solo tuba on 4th of July Macy's parade. My co hunters have expressed their will by the number of objects I find all around me the next morning..... :oops:
 
My hunting partner snores pretty bad. Most times we can sleep far enough apart that its not an issue. We have a late season hunt this fall where we will be sharing a hot tent. Normal foam ear plugs aren't enough! This guy saws logs! Has anyone dealt with this? Suggestions? Thanks.

I crossed that bridge years ago and stopped sharing tents when I'm out hunting...period.

We each take two-person tents and use them solo. For extended remote hunts I also bring a 4-person SO teepee to use together as a day shelter.
