I don't see an advantage to getting there 1.5 hoursbefore daylight. I'll get tired, I'll bust deer just as easily that earlyas 20 minutes before daylight, and as a couple people have already said, your scent is there longer. Unless I've got a perfectly clear path to my stand, I like tostalk my way in just as you're able to see. Again, as someone else, you're much more quiet that way.
