Leaving flashlight switched on

Recommended Posts

I hunt a lot at night using a flashlight if i don't have NVG's, trouble is if anyone clocks the torch they clock you. (Don't get me wrong, i quite like the risk factor, adds to the tension etc)

Be sweet though if you could position the flashlight to illuminates an area so you can then take up an alternative position away from it. I know we have flares but the flashight gives off a stronger light. Maybe place it on a rock, a wall or a fallen tree or something.

Also, you might want it to be seen, leave it there to attract any night time stalkers who decide to investigate or take pot shots and get a few kills from those moth-like mofo's.

hmmm i like that idea just for the false entrapment idea, flares are annoying as they flicker and trick the light, chemlights just aint bright enough but the torch would be ideal.

I like it. It would be really cool to make a detraction like this.
