RE: Question: It's dark, deer all around your stand...
i have dropped a arrow once. straight down out of the stand. there was three deer browsing around the stand. after the arrow hit the ground they all looked at it. did the head shake thing, and then slipped away. didn't seem to spook them very much. just made them curious and then they were on their way.
