What's your favorite light for tracking deer with? Don't mind spending up to $100, want something with good battery life and that is bright!

Cyclops LED handheld. Mine runs a good while on 6AA and has been good to me for a few years.

Boruit. they are heavy and hard to fit in a pack but they are bright, rechargeable, and last a few years.

I have the Fenix tk35.... 4 settings, when you shine blood on the highest setting it damn-near glows.. high is something like 1300 lumens. Mine has the rechargeable batteries and they last a long time, have never died on me during use. Incredible light for the money.

I usually just use a Q beam and a car battery from the stand. On full moon nights I dont even need it

I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about leupold’s small thermal monocular. It is made for game recovery. Apparently you can see the blood lit up like a path and see a warm body for hours after a shot.

I use my coon hunting light. It's an expensive one, but there are $100 com hunting lights that are good. They are much better than anything I've found for tracking

You guys use some expensive lights.

I picked this 3 pack w/ batteries at Costco last week for $15, and I am very impressed. They are compact and bright as hell.

Duracell LED

Google "varmint" light instead of deer light.

Oh I could fill a truck bed with the cheap ones I’ve bought that have failed me.

I have never had a flashlight fail because the light was shite. I have only had batteries crap out.

Craftsman 450 lumen headlamp. It was $15 and it takes AAA’s instead of some crazy shite you can’t easily find. It’s bright enough for anything I need to do.

Normally I just use the truck’s headlights for spotlighting.
