Just my opinion and preference but personally, if I'm walking through the deer woods in the dark I want to be visible and for me, bright white is the huckleberry. You never know who else is out there. I just try to keep the headlamp adjusted so it's pointed at the ground in front of me, not shining through the woods like a beacon.. And when I'm moving in the dark it's pretty much getting from point A to Point B before first light, I'm not trying to get within range before shooting light, not much point in that.

Plus, I have a hard enough time sneaking up on deer in broad daylight when I can see what's underfoot, the chances of doing it by headlamp are slim and none for me anyway.
