    Puffin what a good design & you put a lot work into that but for me it would only be any good as a stay at the car tent as to me it looks as tho it going get heavy I do think what Micky duck said is right a small light weight tent then the option of a big fly that can't attach quick & easy to give the ones more hight & dry space if you want it, the down side would be siting up in tent because tent would probably be lower. It depends how mean days you plan on staying in it on a trip for me it would be a max off the 3 days so & I take all my gear & camp were I end up at the end off the day so a big heavy tent is a no go & don't need much room stop when dark set tent up tea bed up at day break watch that clearing from night before pack up & off. I do think it going be a pretty hard ask to design a tent that even works for % off hunters in NZ as so many people hunt so many different ways & different altitudes & I do get that a tops hunter probably needs a lot more space under cover than a bush hunter who can just throw pack under the tree for the night
