Default Thieving POS stole hunting blind

Some lowlife scumbag stole my cousins bale blind near Rumsey in the last 48 hours. If anyone sees or hears of a Red Neck Bale that is new to a person please send me a PM. There are not that many of these around and they are not cheap. ( about $ 800 ) Reward of a 60 ouncer or flat of beer for info leading to the recovery.

Crappy
I hope you get it back and, if karma truly exists, the d-bag who took it gets what's owed to him.

That's sucks, My trail cameras these days spend more time watching my blind and my 3 stands than they do wildlife. I've even got trail cameras that watch trail cameras.

If you happen to find out who this was post it everywhere, public humiliation, but it is probably sold for drug money....

Does anyone ever get their blinds, trail cams, tree stands etc. back? Do these thieves ever get caught? What happens when they do?

I had a friend set one up near my feed yard to hunt the deer that come in and eat. I had to be careful not to grab it with the loader. It was so good looking a guy could have tried to feed it.

Hope you track it down that's a expensive loss.

I feel for you, this season is the first season I've out my blind and cameras on public land. I get almost more excited to see my blind and cameras still in place rather than the pictures on the cameras.

Arrow Red Neck Bale Blind -

.



For those not familiar with these, they look like that ^

Can the OP tell us anything about the stolen one, that makes it a little different from all the others (ID marks, damage, etc.) ?

Default It was in new condition.

It was virtually brand new. Only set up twice so no marks or rips or otherwise identifiable marks.

Default Correction and update

SO the missing blind was mostly in part due to my cousin reading his map wrong. The blind was not on the land he thought it was and was removed by the landowner. He has been in contact with the landowner and will be getting his blind back on Friday. He is feeling pretty dumb about it. He is not the kind of guy to hunt without permission. Just a mistake that could have cost him lots of $$.
Thanks for the concerns and apologies to the landowner affected.

That's pretty funny.....lol. What's your cousin owe you for getting your blood pressure up?

Glad that you still have the blind.

I don't think there are a lot of drug addicts randomly walking the bush, but I could be wrong.

My money is on another hunter with no morals or integrity.

Exactly! Glad it all turned out well. Losing a nice blind like that would have been heartbreaking.
