Default How should I get down???

I guess I' ve never gotten a satisfactory answer from friends, so I will post the question to the online community- what do you do when you are pinned in a treestand at dark and you are surrounded by does? The other night I had a half dozen does move in on me when I had already lowered my bow. It was definitely too dark to shoot. I tried blowing by buck grunt, to no avail. I didn' t want to just start making human noise because this spot is a good one. Finally I used a flashlight and shined it in their eyes for a few minutes. This pushed them off, fortunately un-spooked. Anyone have any bright ideas (no pun intended) out there?
