[QUOTE="retrieverman, post: 3869558, member: 24452"] Ok, I’m going to confess some dumbassery on my part. When I was attempting to blood trail the deer in the dark last night, I pulled out the Fenix light I bought specifically to carry in my pack, and it was really dim. I thought the batteries were bad, so I drove 5 miles round trip on the Ranger back to my house to get my old faithful flashlight and found the deer with 30 seconds of getting back to my stand. It ended up I had shined the dim light right on the deers belly but thought it was a dead tree, so I didn’t go look. I was just changing the batteries on the Fenix and discovered it has a button to change the brightness settings.:blush: I say all that to say this. Know your equipment before getting in the field and needing it. I spend a lot of time on stands, knives, and whatever weapon I’m hunting with, but until now, I haven’t given any thought to my flashlight other than having one. The one I normally carry is just the on/off kind, and I hadn’t played with the Fenix enough to know it was different.:anyone: [/QUOTE]
