i had it happen twice this year. And in the same stand. The bad thing was, me andmy uncle were the only people that were supposed to be hunting htere. One day, whil bowhunting int his stand, two guys wlaked by, i stayed about 10 minutes and i started hearing them shooting at stuff(anything they saw i think) then i left. The enxt week, i went abck to the same stand and tehre was a guy sitting in it. I asked him poilitly to leave and he wouldnt. So i went crashing through the trees and i took that stand down the same night.
