Well my brother and I have permission to hunt some private land about an hour away. So we went out there Saturday morning. We broke off and I headed to where I was gonna use my climber and he was going to his usual spot where is tree stand is at. So i've got my climber set up and about to head up the tree when he calls me. "Dude, my stand is gone." .. It was there two weeks ago.... So we ground hunt/stalk the morning. Go and grab a bite to eat for lunch and call my uncle who owns the property. He said that he just walked the property line recently and noticed the neighbors had a new stand setup on the property line that was a 2 person stand. So we go and check it out... what do you know... there was my brother's stand. Marked and looking the exact same as when he had used it last. So we go to the neighbors house and confront em. The "O-***** look" on the guys face when he answered the door was priceless. They were very cooperative. Long story short, we drug the stand back out and relocated on the property for my brother in a REALLY nice spot that I had found previously. LOTS of activity. Hunted that night, but didnt see anything... (partially due to wind and partially due to us trampling in and out to get everything setup) But, good news was we recovered the stand...and the neighbors have been warned that law enforcement will be involved next time.
Couldnt go out this morning, but will be out everyday this week.
So all in all, it was an interesting day
