Have you had either of them out for a practice run? If not you could add up how many pegs of each kind you need whislt having a go at puttingthem up. The pegs that come with it won't be totally useless either, they will be ok for pegging down the fly- you probably just need 8 Deltas for the main guys on your Monty 12, and then i usually use a bout 8 of those rippled angle pegs for securing the corners of the fly and the feet of the poles.
oh no, just read this about pegs, guess i'll need to buy some for my tent then, i hav'nt tried putting it up yet, weathers been to bad, don't even know how many pegs it has? do i need to get any particular type or will any be ok?

Outwell pegs are pretty good ,wait and see how you get on with them first before forking out for different ones
Sorry, Skatty, but Outwell pegs are no different to any of the other pegs out there.
Apart from Deltapegs that is.

lol sorry rob obviously Delta pegs far out perform any of the 'freebies' you get with the tent ,I only meant in relation to 'freebies' you get with other tents the Outwell ones are thicker and stronger but yes they are still only rubbish basic pegs !
Skatty, just need that big deal from one of the tent companies.

To be honest I didn't realise that the tent is supplied with pegs! (I haven't taken it out of the bag yet).I have read lots of good things about the Deltapegs so maybe I'll get some anyway.
I'm aiming for a practice erection in a couple of weeks, when it's a bit drier.
