i read some other men talking about they had it ruff cause they onley had a light from wal mart!!! i got em all beat, mine is from doller general , its a two doller speacial you have to beat on a tree talk dirty too than beat it one more time, in that order to cut it on. and as soon as u get in tuff spot or do somthing critical its garenteed to go out. they felt bad cuz they had an old 22 rifle!!! well mines an old rifle with a crooked barrell cuz i left it leanin on my buddys tailgate and he backed over it!!! so now u wanna talk about the price of bullets, i would surely go broke trying to pop a coon with that!!! so i use it mostly as a coon swatter witch requires tree climbing and high dangling. and that brings me back to my light. i got smart one day and stopped toting it up the tree cuz by the time i get in bind its going out garonteed. and by the time i chipped my second tooth i was sure id be fine without it!! so now lets talk about high dangling coon swatting in the dark, and im not even going to try to tell u about the combination of things that have went wrong doing that!! but i will tell u i have probly fallen 20+ feet more than any man living talkin about all that gets me thinking about hunting apparal i got a pair of waders that cost a hundred and ten dollers new, so they were pretty nice when ol boy bought em five years ago!!! i bought them from him knowin i got the better of the deal because i could patch up the holes in em!!!! and i did, but after three weeks of hard hunting they were beyond patching, funny thing is they still hold water pretty good!! good enuff to drown u. i think im going to get smart and just go bare footed. i gotta take my waders off to climb the tree and coon swat anywayz!! and while im going bare footed i may as well stop wearing a shirt, cuz the flea ridden mongrel outlaws i hunt dont just tree a coon anywhere they really enjoy treeing one in thick briar brush, u know the kind u just fall backwards in and u dont really get anywhere. its the kind u got to get down low and scratch, claw, and fight ur way through. they kind once u get to the tree there aint no shirt or hide left on u,, that briar brush really makes me wish my buddy hadent runt over my rifle cuz after all that high danglin coon swatten aint fun anymore..
