I am tired of hearing waawaaa someone stole my tree stand. Well take it home with you when you leave. It's your own fault it gets stolen. You lock it up during close season and cry when you go there when it opens and it is gone. It deserves to be stolen and taken. You think you have the right to hunt the same spot every year because you leave your stand there. BS. Take your stand when season is over and your stand won't be stolen. How many stands are actually stolen in season? Prob very few,it is when idiots leave them there all year they get stolen. Go cry to someone else for you not obeying the laws when it comes to stands on public land. You die hard hunters,You know the out every day hunting and in your stand. Think about it. Is your stand stolen from you? No, it is the ones who are lazy and don't hunt hard that gets their stands stolen. Keep crying people. Obey the laws on public land and your stand won't get stolen.
