gone
 

the day before the 2nd gun season in ohio that my trail cam and tree stand was gone. I had the trail cam in a lock box. I hate poeple that do this.

Was it on private property???

I feel for you. Four years ago I had four stands stolen off of private property. Last year I had a stand stolen off the same private property. We know who did it but we have no evidence. This year nothing has been screwed with - yet. We got the word out to everyone that the sheriff is doing an investigation of recent treestand thefts and they are looking at someone in particular.....it's just a made up story but it has this guy on pins and needles. Good luck..

I know how you feel as I have had stands stolen before. I have almost went exclusively to a climbing stand for this reason.

I always pull my stands and take them out with me (unless it's just overnight). And I'm using a Lone Wolf hang-on with sticks.

Gps locators installed in cameras as anti theft deterrent. Low Jac for hunters! Why not!

yes it was on my owe land it had be there for two years. they took the tree stand but not the steps.

I own 400 acres in central WV that is surrounded by thousands of acres of private land that really isn't hunted much.

I set up a climbing stand in the middle of nowhere...no trails...basically on a flat that leads to a funnel. I honesly believed that nobody would ever see this stand, and in 30+ years of hunting this spot, I've never seen another person near there. Rarely do we see anyone near our property.

I left it on a Sunday and went to hunt it on a Thursday....Gone.

It's not the only thing I've had stolen, but it was astounding to me that someone found and stole it.
