[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5759670, member: 20583"] I pretty rarely go in before daylight. I spooked too many deer I couldn't see so I started going in no earlier than shooting light and it's worked out really well for me. Same with walking out. About a third of the bucks I've killed in recent years were from the ground as I was going in or out. Something else that I think makes a difference is the ground scent. When walking in the dark I brush against lots of bushes and briers that I wouldn't if I could see to side step them. Not a big deal if I was rifle hunting at distance from a blind or preset stand, but when bowhunting inside thickets ground scent matters a lot. [/QUOTE]
