Default RE: have you ever stolen a treestand?

ORIGINAL: Rob/PA Bowyer

I've never taken one home but I have taken one down that was way over the line. I took it down and layed at the base of a tree with a poster sign on it. Had it been any farther off the line than it was, I would have acquired it.

If I find one on my own property, it will go home with me and replaced with a note to come see me. If they do, we'll have a talk, if they don't, I now have another stand.

And I would hope that the 4 people who so far voted yes are under this assumption and not outright stealing. There is no place in bowhunting, this forum or my world for thieves.
Rob I voted yes! Am I a theif...NO guys want to trespass on my land and the farmer tells me to take them down then down they come! I will always ask 1st. Then I have no problem giving it back if they come see me. They know where to find me they obviously found my woods they are not suppose to be in. So I voted yes maybe I should of said no but I am technically taking something that is not mine, but they are trespassing and assuming the risk! We let the one stand in all year and they never came back to get it so I was informed to remove it!
