So enlighten me. Do you leave your tree stand for longer than the season? If you do, I might take it to clean up what I consider a mess that somebody left.
The rules are different in each state, I'm sure. In Michigan you can't put out a deer blind until the season opens and it has to be removed on the last day of the season. Also you can't attach a tree stand to a tree with any nails or screws.
