Default RE: Have you ever had something hunting-related stolen?

Yes , half of my season.
My daughter had a baby about 4 months ago, and my wife arranged to babysit him for the grand sum of $50 per week + $10 for doing their laundry to save our daughter some money and make a little change for herself since she's unemployed and likely to remain so. They live right across the river from where I work, a 30 mile drive, so my wife just assumed that she could commute there with me, we don't have a second car(yet). She neglected to remember that while I frequently get off work at 2:30 to 3:00 pm our daughter doesn't, which means I have to toddle over there after work and wait for her to come home, which lately has been nearly 5:00 pm. By the time we get home it's nearly dark, so my hunting time has pretty much been reduced to just weekends. When she first told me of this grand scheme she was mystified by my angry reaction until I explained how hard she had just screwed me. Tax time is just around the corner and I plan to go to a local auction and buy a gas sipper car for commuting , just wait until she finds out that I plan to let her drive my 20 mpg Explorer back and forth when October 1st comes back around. Between the $35 per month for the insurance and the cost of the gas I'm confident that she'll feel just as trapped and pissed off as I did.
