The president of my club just called me and let me know that one of his portable stands has been stolen off our private property. Lets see, thats at least 10 stands in the last 3 years. One of our members has lost 5 stands. I'm thinking its someone from a neighboring property. We found one of our stands behind a neighboring farm house a couple of days after it was stolen-that was about 3 years ago. I knocked on the door after we found it and the guy living there said he knew nothing about it. I should take another walk behind that farm house. I would like to think that its not another hunter stealing stands but it sure seems that way. We lock them to the tree and they cut the locks. I thought about putting a trail cam out but they would probably steal that too. Just had to vent!
