best locking system for stands
what do you guys find is the best locking system for stands i have a ladder 2 man. I was thinking of a cable type stand lock from cabelas.
do you think this will deter any thiefs or is it a waste of money.
The stand cost 100 bucks not sure who would want to go to the trouble to go get bolt cutters or a drill come back hang around get it down and drag it out of the woods.

RE: best locking system for stands
I use a 10 inch ledger lock bolt that has a special star bit that fits it. You would need a 18v drill driver with that exact bit to remove it. it fits nice and flush to the stand and is case hardened , also they don't rust. They work great . You have to go way out of your way to steal it with one of them on it. I think the parent company is fasten master
