Tree stand on DNR land

[Maverick]

There are places that aren't considered designates camping areas in the woods. If Im sitting in my blind every evening but someone showed up at noon and sat in it so now its there's because I abandoned it? So while you're gone from camp out hunting I can show up, sit in one of your camp chairs that you left on public ground with my rifle, and when you show up you can't say a thing because you abandoned that chair while you were gone and I sat in it to hunt right? I won't mess with your camper but from what you're saying that camp chair you left out is the same as a tree stand and when I walked by and saw it I thought it looked like a great place to sit and wait for a buck so I did.

Haha, would be just my luck a buck would walk by base camp and I wouldn't see anything while sitting in someone else's abondoned stand . Just leave some beer in the cooler for me while you wait for me to return.

Who is that much of a loser to sit in someone else stand?  Would love someone to try that to mine.

Just curious what you'd do, given that it's perfectly legal for someone to use something that you left abandoned on public land.

Why are you guys so entitled to feel that you can leave stuff out on public land and claim that land as your own?

Some of you guys are retarded. We aren't claiming the land or the freakin tree as our own. We do own the treestand tho. If someone else wants to hunt the same area, go ahead, I don't stake any claim to the land. But its a whole different ballgame if someone uses your stand.

I don't care what the law says, everyone knows how they would personally feel if someone used their stand that a lot of hard work was put into to find the area and pack the stand in, possibly packing bait into the area.

If someone uses someone elses stand or even defends the right to do so on a forum, it speaks volumes of their lack of personal integrity, regardless of what the law says.  To compare, there is no law that says it is illegal to sleep with another man's wife. Is it morally and ethically right to do so?

I really hope you guys who would defend someone who would use someone else's stand NEVER volunteer to teach hunter's education. We don't need your "ethics" being taught to our kids.

For the record:    I wouldn't use someone else's tree stand....   It is their property.

I was just curious what the internet tough guys would do.   Mildly entertaining.

I don't use tree stands.....but if I did it would be yours!

Someone with time and talent should make this Meme.

[HUNTINCOUPLE]

When we put up our Hut and tree stands we leave a note in a ziplock with names, dates it will be there and phone numbers. This seems to have helped so people know they are not abandoned property on pubic property.

[westsidehntr]

Who actually thinks they are abandoned property?

There may be a few rare cases where they are grown over and obviously been abandoned for years, but really they aren't abandoned. Use common sense people. Sheeit...

Sorry, I fed the fire... sometimes someone needs to play devils advocate so people get an idea of other points of views. Plus, this is way too entertaining. No reason to call anyone "retarded".

Found this photo on the internet. Thinking Smokey the bear says it is his stand if left in the woods...

[Dan-o]

OK, which of the internet tough guys is going to go kick that bear's butt??
