Stay Off My Stands

Different species but last year my son and I were after ducks and geese at a flooded hayfield where several groups had permission to hunt. 5 minutes after we got there another truck pulls in. After some brief introductions we all agreed to work together toward a common goal. Had a great morning and met some new hunting partners. Hope you can work something out with these guys.

Thats how it should be. Hope so.

Easier to team up together when waterfowl hunting tho. Unless you have a 2 man stand and sit in the same stand together...lolSeriously tho, get a climber. Prep a bunch of trees in the areas you may want to hunt and away you go. Not only will they not be able to use your stands, they likely won't even know the area you are targeting.

I have a climber and lw stand n sticks
The ladderstands I've had up are just handy. Land owner wouldn't appericiate me cutting limbs off his trees.

Don't forget their's a lot of low life trespassers that have no problem sitting in stands,or pushing your bush to the neighbouring property where they have permission.

Lol. Tell me about it. Had a crew of guys pushing a bush as I sat in my stand last year ( different bush) Just told them don't shoot me and I won't shoot them. Friggin orange army.

here's a trick to keep all those idiots out there that mess with your stands...get yourself a paint marker in white and write on the ladder up into your stand....."smile you are on camera" and other messages like that....people think twice about using it......
works for me on public land....

Perfect

We hunt a bush in S.O. and there are two parties that hunt it. We have stands up and they have stands up. We have a mutual agreement that when we are there they are not and all stands can be sat by either party. A phone call or two prior to the season opener and everything is worked out. Works for us.

HA

A fella that hunts the Ganaraska Forest did that. When he came back,not only was his stand gone,but,so was his camera. Underneath where his camera was,there was a note that said "thanks".
