....and how do you see anything behind and beyond the deer in the dark? How do you see a hunter in blaze orange on stand in the dark?
When it comes to professional hunters reducing dangerously high deer numbers, I see no problem with spotlighting or shining deer and shooting them. But for the general public? Again, how would the legalization of hunting at night help with the deer kill? Do you think that a high number of folks that won't take time off during the regular season or hunt weekends are going to be motivated to hunting at night? How is night hunting going to get access to private land? I would think it would tend to anger land owners as they would not be able to see trespassers. Do you really think that allowing deer hunting at night is going to recruit more hunters? Do you really think that hunting at night is going to make deer hunters take more deer?

If they could hunt at night it would be a different story.

IMHO, I don't think so. The only difference, would be a increase in violations and accidental shootings.
