I love hunting, but one of the spookiest things in the world for me is walking in almost complete darkness to my stand. There is just something about it... it is so quiet and you can hear every little movement being made out there. All I can think about is that guy from Friday the 13th... then I remember that I have a badass weapon in my hand! Let that a-hole try me!

Yeah, especially last year, but this year I'm pretty well over it. The thought of killing a deer walking down to my stand sort of overrides the thought of a bear or somethin jumping out at me.
Besides why should I be worried, if something messes with me I have a 30-30.

I never get scared walking thru the woods in the dark. I know my area backwards and forwards. Occasionally, I will hunt a new area and will get frustrated and even anxious because I wish I knew the woods better as I try to locate my stand in the dark. I honestly don't understand how anyone, especially someone with a weapon, can get scared just because the woods are dark. Lost is one thing, walking to a place in the woods that you know very well is another.

im the same as trapper dave...started chasing coonhounds through the woods when i was 7 or 8...us coon hunters could go on for months on things we seen and heard out there...but the important thing is were both alive and nothing is out there to hurt us..cept a few things might but there isnt really anything there to hunt you down and kill you...and you figure coon hunting we have lights...sure i did...but it was rarely on..sitting there waiting for the dog to tree or strike a track it was off...when walking on a trail of any kind it was off...my dad was wierd about that..he doesnt think o hes 8 he might be a little afraid...but now i can go out there in the middle of the dark and be comfortable...theres nothin out there no matter what you here...dont let your imagination get to you..

Anyone walking through the woods in darkness, with total silence, with thoughts wondering to sunrise.......and then the shrill of an owl right above you goes off and you don't freak....BS.
