The end of the long peg puller is not an U, it is a more a wide V tilted sideways, as can be seen in the pic below:



Therefore, one only needs to tilt the peg puller about 45 deg from vertical/horizontal in order to get the hook end of the peg puller into the "n".

I was looking for something else entirely but came across this page http://www.campingworld.co.uk/en/gb/News/Tent-Pegs-Explained/n-296.aspx

Quite a good breakdown.

Hoping to finally test pitch the Tripstein tomorro. So do I use the wire pegs for the g/sheet and the 'u' shaped ones for the guys or the other way round? Man I feel so naive, not like I'm a new camper....

Notably, the hook of your puller does appear to be a lower profile with a wider angle, which seems to be more in line with my standard length puller, as opposed to the full "U" shape of my (Delta) long reach puller (Which seems to be what Bob has too?)

Hi, just saw this thread,probably the best tip I have been given during my short camping experience is on the day you are leaving go round and tip water on the pegs this makes them really easy to pull out
