I wait until I can see to walk in withut a light. I also leave the stand when I can see to walk without using a light. been doing it that way for years.

Sitting on stand in the dark is not productive stand time! Plus, the longer your in the stand, the more scent is pouring off you and filling the surrounding environment.
Isn't it better to be settled in and ready a good while before deer start moving at first light?

Same here for the most part. I've just got far too many ag fields to deal with and have much better success and lower impact hunting my way in and hunting my way out.bowriter said:I wait until I can see to walk in withut a light. I also leave the stand when I can see to walk without using a light.
