Title: Need to get out!
Post by: littletoes on September 18, 2010, 07:00:53 AM: Dang-nabbit guys! I need to get out, but the honey-do's just keep piling up! :bash: :bash: :bash:

I've a couple of spots that are dying for me to "sit-on", but the deck needs work, the boat needs winterizing, the truck needs work, etc. etc. ....and the season just keeps getting later' an later.

Ever have one of those days???

I can't start anything, have to leave the house in a bit too.

I would help you all with those honey-do-lists if I lived closer so you could get out. I like chores and it allows me to get out because I have a smoking awesome wife that feels I need to hunt to get out and enjoy my time away from work and life.

I still can't believe someone would be stupid enough to break into somebody elses vehicle in the mountains. I wonder what their reaction would be if a hunter came back to his rig while they are in the middle of stealing crap? I think i'd make 'em dance. :guns:

Title: Re: Need to get out!
Post by: saylean on September 25, 2010, 09:54:30 PM: Ya, they tried to break into my rig out by Sultan last year, behind a locked gate. I parked where my brother got busted into tonight...I left a note on my driver window that said:

I am ARMED and close by, nothing in this truck is worth your life.

Might have some people think twice..might not...I bet it will get some looks, I think i am gonna keep putting it up when I park there or a few other spots I know of.

I'm not sure they can read anyway. I'll volunteer to do a stake out for you. Let me know where that is happening. I'm serious too :chuckle:

Post by: littletoes on September 26, 2010, 08:58:41 AM: Heard of this kind of crap going on, have even thought about sitting and watching my own rig for a while just to see what happens....

A guy should put a trail cam pointed towards his rig in areas where this is going on, but they'd just steal that too....

Post by: TheHunt on September 26, 2010, 09:30:38 AM: Last year the Winston unit had something like 17 break-in's during the entire hunting season. I think that area would be a prime area for a stake out. Killing them is a little too severe but a mallet and phone book or rubber hose filled with lead seems like an opportunity to impress in a mind to keep driving by a parked rig.

Post by: saylean on September 26, 2010, 09:46:23 AM: Just to be clear, I wouldnt blast someone for busting into my rig...its just a loud bark. ;)

They might lay on the ground under gun point until police got there, but that would be about it...

no curb stomping... :chuckle:
