I've got three double tripods around 15' tall that are nearly exactly identical to family traditions. I've got to brace them this weekend and want to be sure they're solid. how would y'all go about bracing them. Just do the normal with the post drove down in the center and ratchet strap it?

If they’ve got holes for rebar, do that, and bend the top over.

I've also screwed mobile home anchors in ground on opposite sides and used chain and turnbuckles to tighten.

I'd just drive a t-post down in the middle and drill a hole. Put an eyelet through it and use cable and turn buckle from the center of the stand. Doesn't take much

Put an earth anchor directly under your stand. Run a ratchet strap from the bottom of the stand, through the earth anchor eye and back up to the bottom of the stand.

Yeah I figured that would be enough. Just wanted to double check
