Hunting partner that snores??

[Lowg08]

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.

I used to be that guy. CPAP changed my life and made for a happier wife.

I’m going to bed after my breathing treatment, not bothered by noises.

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.....

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.

I was on a week long deer hunt in a small ranch house once with a buddy. We get there and three other guys were staying there also, one big guy that would go to bed about 8:30 pm and within minutes he had the walls shaking with his snoring. Sounded like some animal that had just got run over. There were 3 beds in his room and after the first night his two buddies slept in the living room in chairs. I ended up going in to town and buying the loudest fan I could find. His snoring was worse than having a train speed past the house in the middle of the night with the horn blowing.

Get his osa fixed

Keep your boots close by so you can throw them at him to tell him to role over.
Works every time.

Honestly I have 3 different friends that snore like a freight train. It sucks some times. I usually just tell them to roll over.

Def have them check with their dentist about getting a snore mouth piece. It makes all the difference in the world for me.

I'm the guy that snores at camp. Most of the dudes I've camped with snore pretty bad but we're busting our asses every day on the river so it's not super hard to fall asleep when we turn in for the evening.

Plus it probably helps keep bears away from camp since it sounds like a felling crew is working night shifts.

I would need a way to get away from him.

My hunting buddy snores so loud and erratically that it sounds like a construction site. On top of that, he insists on watching TV until he falls asleep. I turn the TV off but he puts it back on when he wakes up. I'll be honest, it has ruined a lot of trips for me.

We had a 2 room hunting shack.
Two bunk beds and a single bed.
Mike snored.
Dad snored.
Charles snored.
Grampa snored.
That little 2 room shack really vibrated opening weekend!
Being the youngest, I had to go to bed 30 minutes early to get a head start! LOL!

Back when I was a kid at my Gramp's cabin, I fell asleep on the couch by the big front picture window. Woke up in the middle of the night terrified of what I thought was an angry grizzly bear pacing back and forth outside next to me. Not sure exactly when I realized there are zero grizzlies in Northern Michigan and that the racket was coming from Gramp's back bedroom, but it was a scary little while.
