RE: I finally joined the club!!!!!
"A lock is only going to keep an honest person honest." This is a quote from my grandpa that has held true to date.
I had just introduced my youngest daughter to hunting when we hung two hang-onstands in a split walnut tree sowe could hunt together. Perfect for early bow season overlooking a'wagon wheel' of deer trails. Once the leaves fell,both stands were stolen. We recovered both of the locks as the cables were easier to cut through with bolt cutters than the hardened locks and just tossed on the ground.We used climbing sticks and took them in and out each time we hunted the stands.
Yeah, we are a member of this club.[:@]

I have a friend on two occasions ran into problems. I'm not sure there are only two but one someone stole all of his steps left the stand. The second one someone stole the whole fricking tree. He was cracking up telling me this story. Someguy walk by and saw him. He was on state property that was very remote area. Right next to it was choice property hunted by guys borned with a silver spoon in their mouth. Anyway the guy started giving my friend a bunch of Barbra Streisand and my friend told him to piss off he had every right to be there because he was on public land. Went back a week later and the whole tree was gone. He only buys lock ons at $30 if he leaves them behind.
