Default RE: going in right before dark....good idea? bad idea?

well....haha i hunted not far from the area last week and shot a small 8pt and when i went back in to my stand to find him and get him out, i couldn't find my stand. everything looks the same at night. theres no creeks, fields, anything. its just flat and its about a 900yd walk into the woods. i found a few NICE rubs yesturday and walked 80yds and turned back to go to the rub couldn't find it. its just everything looks the same and after it took me 4 hr to get that deer home after the shot, i think the bright eyes would help alot. the only reason i wanted to get them out today is because carrying a bow and a treestand on my back and putting out brighteyes would take time and im already pushin it by gettin in there at 5 to hunt. the wind wont be right to hunt untill wend so i might get in from the field side where i wont need them.
