The higher you go the better. Deer where I live have gotten used to seeing hunters at the 12 – 14 ‘ height.
Going a little higher is the thing to do if you want to score. It also depends on the type of tree. Going that high in an oak with lots of branches below is not that bad. Wear a safety harness no matter what height ! I just started wearing one thanks to some good recommendations from some of the folks here.
I also think that being in a treestand where you can’t get up and move around is a good thing, for me anyway.

PS: Nothing wrong with getting high every once in awhile:wink:
Bounty Hunter had a thread a couple of weeks ago “ A coupleof cool pictures” I think? Anyway there are two pictures of Bounty Hunter And his daughter each releasing an arrow. Both releases are about as “letter perfect” as you can get ❗
The other thing is both bow arms have not moved. Maybe this helps create the perfect release. The pictures show them releasing the arrow, and the arrow, after it has cleared the bow.
I agree with the Coleman lantern people. In fact, I would go so far as to say, that the small droplets of blood almost shine in its light! Two people with two lanterns works really well. Only drawback is that it is pretty easy to get dis-oriented at night
