Heres an idea, you take a couple of cases of those pull string fire works(ive used this idea before) wrap them together, so it looks like one big fire work, or make a rope booby trap with them and put it betwen two trees. If it works out right you can here it from china without blowing the old farts legs clean off, but you will know if he is on the land. It sounds very crazy but sometimes you have to go commando z, some one stole my Dads climber this past season and that realy ticks me off. Im thinking about getting a camera to see if I can get a pic of him on our friends land that we hunt on, and also to check deer pop. sorry about the stolen cam, but it will continue unless you make sure the man knows you mean bussiness. Good hunting all!

Taking a pic of a poster board with your name and stuff is a good idear but the problem I see is that all the developeing processors are busy doing other things and don't even look at the pictures being developed. I guess a shot in the dark is better than none at all though and I for one will do that in the future as I have lost a camera also.

Yes! some people just like to be jerk's and take thing's that don't belong to them . I would mention to him that you lost your cam and that you intend on watching the area a little closer from now on ,just so that he know's and he might not be so quick to touch anything else from here on in .Don't accuse him just let him know what's been going on. I know it's only $65.00 but it's $65.00 that belong's to you not them.
This is actually 1 reason I haven't used a cam ,I'd love to put one out but I'm afraid of this happening.

All this talk about cameras getting stolen makes me want to change my mind about buying one this season for scouting.

Thanks for all the info and support I am going to try to come up with a way to build a mold or something out of metal to go around the plastic except in the front and put a hinge on the side and a handle on the other to lock the camera then run a chain around the tree and put a lock on it and run two screws into the tree through the back case of the camera.Then if someone steals it they worked for it.[:@][:@]

my cheap-o stealth cam cam with a metal deal to put in the back to use for chaining it to the tree...Yours didn't?

OH YEAH BABY!!!

Thats what i'm sayin'! lol Sometimes ya just gotta take explosive measures! I think i'll go with the that Stealth Cam, great price and people like it. Add a little c-4 to go with it J-bow!

mdbohuntr,
Actually alot more developers look through the pictures then you think. I am pretty sure they have to. See, they only charge you for the pictures that turn out so they look through all of them to see if there were any that didn't process correctly. They also have to look through them to be sure that there isn't any "illegal" material on them. If there is they must contact the police. And finally at most one hour developers the pictures come out of the machine right in front of the clerks and they have to look through all of the to be sure that the machine is working properly. So in reality, your chances of someone seeing the pic is pretty good. Especially if it's on flourescent green poster board with big bold letters. We as people are so nosy that if we see that pic we'll have to read it.

No BrianDamage Mine didnt come with one but I will be making one during the off season there going to have to work hard to get my camera next time[:@]
