I never get scared walking thru the woods in the dark. I know my area backwards and forwards. Occasionally, I will hunt a new area and will get frustrated and even anxious because I wish I knew the woods better as I try to locate my stand in the dark. I honestly don't understand how anyone, especially someone with a weapon, can get scared just because the woods are dark. Lost is one thing, walking to a place in the woods that you know very well is another.
