I notice in a lot of photos of tarps in porch mode that many people put the handles of their poles on the ground and tie off to the tips.
I prefer to put the tips in the ground then tie off around the handles. Benefits:
- the tips are pushed into the ground, giving a more secure anchor point
- the handles are kept out of the mud
- your guy ropes are tied to a clean handle, rather than muddy pole-tips.
The only downside I see is that it’s slightly more difficult to tie the guy ropes around a pole handle than around the pole tips.
Thoughts?
