I tend to agree with you on this Bob.But most of the time I can get to my stands without a light in the dark but that is only when I get my but out of bed early enough.[&:]I usually go in right before it breaks day.

I actually enjoy going in a bit later sometimes and sitting later up into the miday.This way I do a little ground hunting to the stand.I just really don't enjoy sitting in the dark for 30-45 minutes.Enjoying the hunt is what I try to do regardless.
