........thieves! Once again, my All Purpose Boy's crap has been ripped off by someone. A pricey trailcam this time. He had his first chance to bow hunt this A.M., 10 days into our archery season. He has a stand on public ground not all that far from our property, and was really looking forward to hunting the spot, but work and other obligations kept him out of the woods until this morning. It infuriates me when I hear of jackasses doing this. It is knot-in-your-stomach stuff when it hits close to home.

my camera has been okay so far, but last year somebody took the pins out of my stand. I replaced them with master locks for this season

Got down to my cabin for a squirrel hunt, deer season prep, and found the mangled hasp laying on the porch, and a bunch of stuff stolen and the rest trashed. Sure does put you in a killing kind of mood. Sheriff's Deputy is pretty sure who did it, but they're already in rehab jail, and 4 young kids in the system.

Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor.

Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!

Every winter I would have somebody break into my fish house on the lake even though I would take everything out worth stealing. They would tear half the door frame off breaking in. I still don't leave anything worth stealing inside, but instead of a lock I put a bolt through the hasp that can be lifted out. I got tired of having to rebuild the door frame. Works like a charm! Nothing stolen and no damage.


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

mad I know exactly how you feel. I had a fairly new game cam I put up last year stolen 100 yds. from the property line. I'm pretty sure 90% of Amish won't go to heaven cuz thou shalt not steal is in the bible. Had another one busted off a tree last year too. except that one was done by a "sportsmen" from the outfitters property next door. mad mad mad

A relative had a tree stand,a 2 seater with a ladder on my dads property for a couple of years with no issue,checked it that summer,no problem,goes back for opening day of bow season its gone.How they found it is one thing,how they got it out of there is another story.I blame it on the drug culture,anything they can get their hands on to sell easily is fair game.Sick society,no morals or ethics.

That is to bad and I hate to hear that stuff.

I have been fortunate that I have never had a camera, blind or tree stands every stolen.

These dirty bast**** have ripped us off several times. My son works about 45-50 miles away, and had a ladder stand set up on public ground near his job so he could hunt the first hour or two on opening day (5-6 rifle seasons ago). He got to the bottom of the tree at 6a.m. and the stand was gone. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......

Told the local law one day I have access to over 300 acres & can have 20 backhoes here in an hour. Which hole is he in? Havn't had anything stolen since. Guess the word got out.

You are spot on. All the bleeding hearts call it a disease that cant be helped and its not their fault they gotta steal to support their habit.

suprises me to hear that trappers cannot come up with some good ideas to deter such scum.....surely something that would slice off some fingers or perhaps a hand or foot?

I have a solution, now yall hear me out on this one;

I propose to the FDA: a definitive cure to all criminals. It is in a buffered delivery system that doubles as a time release agent as well. It works as designed 100% of the time, when introduced properly and under close supervision. Any lawful citizen may dispense this capsule to alleviate and cure, for the betterment of their community.

The cost of this cure all is far cheaper than any current pharmaceutical remedies.

I bet all of yall know what it is.....................
