Personally no stickers on my rigs. I perfer to stay anonymous. That goes for company names too, Construction, Logging ect. I just don't care for the look. I will say this, in my area the guys with the big buck or bull skull type stickers are also the same guys who rarely fill tags. Not saying it's like that nation wide but I have noticed it in my town (obviously Ross doesn't fall into this group!). I'd be more likely to display a brand I support if I was going to put one up.

Apparently not the case in Colorado. As the guy who I know who kills the most animals of anyone I have ever seen used to have a jeep literally covered in hunting stickers. His name is Aron Snyder

That's why I added the "in my area" & "Not saying it's like that nation wide but I have noticed it in my town" part. I live in western Washington where it seems like there are more hunters than deer and elk combined. Of these hunters that I know, again in my hometown just have the look and do not put the effort in. Again this is my veiw of SOME guys I know in my area, no offense to anyone who has a sticker on they're rig. I'm more of the putting running shoes on your tailgate kind of guy!

I have two big mule deer stickers on the back window of my topper as well as a DU and RMEF sticker. I don't think stickers make you a better or worse hunter. I figure if I have to read liberal political B.S stickers in Colorado every day on vehicles I will present hunting stickers to the liberals.!

Just one LintonOutdoors.com sticker is all I have on my truck, not too worried about it getting broken in to as its pretty rough looking on the outside.

I do have my windows tinted super dark though just to make it hard to see what exactly is inside.

My work car has a full body wrap, literally a rolling billboard!

Maybe we should come up with a big window sticker that says "proud member of the bomb squad " "20 yr vet." Or " I play with explosives for fun what do you do?" Something like this should make a thief think twice and keep the trail head empty.

Once again I am laughing at the like minded thinkers i have found on this forum. I have always been outspoken about those rediculous family tree stickers. Way too much information about your family.

I don't even own a vehicle of my own. My company truck is a plain white chevy 1500 4x4. I look like the game warden driving around. It is pretty easy to spot the dirtbags when i drive around in the forest, because they get a little jumpy when i stop and stare. I thought about putting a few antennas on the top and put a five digit number on the back of the tailgate. Maybe it actually gets people to drive by my trailheads to choose another??

I have a small one, (a guys silohuette packing a bow and an elk rack on his pack), in the lower rear corner of my back window on my baby. It almost blends as its the same color as my truck... However my truck happens to be my duramax that ive built up and use to race... There are alot of stickers under the hood but ive pulled all the badges off minus the duramax badge and sticker wise i dont advertise what it has added cuz i like people to think its stock or slow and watch them cry as i blow them away.. My 51 ford hot rod has no stickers eitherr and has all the handles fully shaved also. I bought a beater s10 that im probably gonna debadge rattle can paint and sticker blast like crazy just for fun! And i pulled all the sickers off my rhino but now it has one big brass knuckle sticker on the front cuz it looks good haha i built it up to look mean and it seemed fitting.... I like stuff to look streamlined, badgless, and very few stickers i guess!

I have a pronghorn and an elk on my Tundra and a Sitka sticker on my real hunting rig: '93 Subaru Legacy Sedan. Confuses the hippies.

I have RMEF, Kifaru and Langlade County Falcons Youth Trap Club on my 2011 Subaru Outback. The looks I get are priceless!

If I have hunting stickers im sure a burglar may think twice.

Unless you are sitting in your truck the guys here around Anchorage will not pause to think more than once. They are never thinking about the what if. If they did they would not be stealing stuff in the first place. The few folks they have caught were well established drug users and using at the time they were caught. Why would anyone think a few stickers would give them pause? Their neurons are not firing normally.

Except for a few boat ramps in remote small towns/villages, Alaskans get hit at the hiking trail heads. People leave stuff in clear view in the back of their car. Bust the window, grab a bag and drive off. It just takes a few minutes to hit a few cars and move on to the next parking lot. These parking lots are seldom used for hunting except for very few drawing tags.

Anchorage also has a well established parking lot theft process. They even get brave enough to walk into office buildings through back doors and take wallets from coats hanging up in view through a window. Others will drive around business parking lots and look for cars with stuff in them. Stop and check the doors and sometimes break the glass. Goodbye Christmas presents! The same process is used to steal truck loads of stuff from parked trucks in front of houses or in driveways. They cruise a nice neighborhood and see someone packing up for the weekend and come back late at night and empty out the back of the truck. That has happend to three families that I know from past jobs. I don't know if any of them had stickers. One of them probably had the typical GLoomis dead fish sticker.

Every time I have come back to my truck at a duck swamp in a "hard" part of the Mat-Su Valley I am amazed that nothing is gone. Down river near a highway and you will be missing stuff not locked up. The people that do this stuff know that you will be gone for hours so they have no issues with checking out every truck at the ramp parking area.

They don't call it the "Meth Su" valley for nothing.

Guess I'm in the minority it looks like. I don't have any problem showing off what I do or the causes/companies I support. For me it goes hand-in-hand with a hunting rig.
