headlamps at home, in each truck and definitely when hunting


also a photon microlight as back up


during the day, I carry a lil nebco bright light in my pocket with the clip.

it's a nice bright light with a fresh AA in it.

plus it's got the scalloped end around the glass, and it's the perfect size to keep from breaking your knuckles if someone can't be persuaded by reason and kindness.

quick flash of bright light to the eyes, followed by a sharp crack.....what's not to love?

and if the power goes out, I've got a light on me

power goes out more often than it has to be used for the former, but I've always loved gear that can perform dual uses


I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
