    Big Daddy Tarp Weight

    Hey everyone. I ordered a 12 foot Big Daddy tarp and according to Wilderness Logics website it is supposed to weigh 14.9 ounces. When I ordered it I thought okay perfect, more coverage and only 1 ounce more that my Warbonnet MamaJamba. The tarp arrived yesterday and it is very well made and I like it but I was surprised that it came in at almost 20 ounces. The material is also quite heavy, I know it's SilNylon but compared to my Silpoly tarp this is really heavy duty. The only option I added were side panel Pull outs. . I'm just slightly bummed about the weight not being as advertised but I know it will be it will be a great tarp.

    What does your Big Daddy weigh?

    Thank you.

    I have a 12' Bullfrog and the weight with the self tensioning Reflect-It tie outs, 4 panel pulls and outside pole mod clips weigh in at 28 ounces. I'm sure that additions like tri loops and the panel pull outs do add some weight. Hopefully that will give you a reference. The only difference really is my 4 doors. You wont be dissapointed in the tarp but I can understand your weight dilemma.
