Carry an Extra Set: Bring spare stakes in case of breakage or loss.

Use Proper Stake Length: Choose the appropriate stake length based on the ground conditions and tent size.

Avoid Overdriving: Do not pound the stakes too deeply into the ground, as this can make them difficult to remove.

Using Inferior Stakes: Invest in quality Groundhog Tent Stakes to withstand extreme conditions.

Neglecting Stake Inspection: Regular maintenance is crucial for safety and performance.
