As we all know thieves are ruining our sport by stealing anything they can get their hands on. I feel that these thieves are mostly lazy and don't want to work hard for nothing so if somthing is locked most of them will leave them alone. I always lock my treestand to the tree but haven't figured out how to lock my climbing sticks to the tree. I usually leave the stand and take my sticks with me, but as you know thats a pain in the butt plus the noise it makes. So what I want to know what do you do to lock your sticks so their not stolen. Any help you can give to me I will be greatful for. Mike
