Yea, well, doesn't suprise me. These folks airn't exactly PHD's...
I recently starting hunting public land and I pack my stand in and out, every time. I really sucks but if you want to keep ahold of your stuff these days, you better keep it close by. Even putting stuff under lock and key just keeps the honest people honest.
I keep a deer cart under my camper at deer camp. We stopped by camp last week on our way home from a trip and sure enough, the cart was pulled out from under the camper. They didn't know I chained it to the axle. Had a feeling it would walk if I didn't lock it down. Heck, really didn't know if the chain would keep it in place.
I just have the mentality that if I can't afford to replace the item, it goes home with me.
It also has kept me from putting cameras out. I just know they will walk in no time.
Hope you get your cameras back and catch the guy who stole them.
