its true that if they want it, they'll get it.

i put a kryptonite cable through the actual platform, using cutters to cut the mesh to form a big enough hole in the platform for the cable to get thru.

and then i also put a lock on the chain that hold it to the tree.

i also dont put them out in the open. if i am gonnna hunt an open spot, i mark it on my gps at the base of the tree or put cat eyes up to the base of that tree and hunt outta my climber.
