    Some people are just idiots!

    Every year I read posts about this. One theory... I'll bet a lot of people trespass when hunting (more than you would ever realize). Some intentional some not. When a flash goes off they know they have been had! Their solution - steal the camera!

    It's a shame, but a reality. I don't own one for this reason. Nothing stays in the field unless I don't mind if it gets stolen.

    Hate to hear that. It happens all the time tho.

    Some people are just morons.
    Some people go to church and think about hunting. Others go hunting and think about God.

    Yep that sucks for sure...I had some tool steal the memory card out of my camera...He left the cam, but took the card...now that is very aggrivating because all of us know how long we wait with high anticipation of getting a giant on camera, then go to check it and the darn card is gone...all i have to say is KARMA.

    I know first hand how infuriatiing that can be!!! We've been battling idiot thieves and vandals for a few years now. Just last weekend we caught 3 low life punks tresspassing on our private, posted property. Long story short, we knew a couple of them and told them we have pics and if anything happens again we were going to the police. THE NEXT MORNING, we go out and the camera we got pics of them on was gone. Needless to say, we went on a war path and we did get our camera back...criminal masterminds huh?...I can't even begin to wrap my mind around how people actually do things like this!

    i was hunting on a guys property last year for coyotes and saw that he had a blind made out of scaffolding. it was about 18 ft. tall with a outhouse blind on top. went there 2 days later and it was gone. i asked him where it went, some guys stole the whole thing. now they had to know wat they were doing to get all that out of there in one night.
