Light builders are killing the scores !!

At the hunts people are taking undeserved minus for slick trees because they can't see the coons the lights are so bright you have to buy a $200 squaller to make them run all over the tree so you can see them after going deep undercover Its been found the lights are burning the hair off coons making them look like possums they are killing the sport and starting wild fires also. Need a coon finding light not a barn finding light !!




Demenstrations please !!

I think they all got so caught up who was building the brightest light that they forgot you got to find the coons with them when people start using a $50 5100 wheat light because it works better than your $400 light duh lol.

Tar, let us start at the beginning.....

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

Well , we got that out of the way!!!!
Thank God!!!!!

So we move on to the rest of the story.....

Do you have a dog that will tree coon?
Or, one that trees , trees? (as we all know one wont be seen i such a tree?) Unless , maybe you are one of them PRO hunters?
and then they can be there always!!!!

Do you actually walk to the tree? Or sit on the tailgate , shine the lights for it , see nothing? So just tone the dog back to the tailgate! Sucks to walk for no reason!!!!!

With all that said!!!!
I am currently, working with a few well known , and some not so well known......

To make the light for YOU!!! and many others I have NO DOUBT!!!!!

It is BRIGHT as the SUN!!!
Can be dimmed down a slow as you want, and with whatever color there is!!!!!!

BONUS!!!!! It will , by way of Hologram!
Project a coon on any limb , tree, fence post , high line pole , you get the IDEA!!!

Beats them slingshot eyeballs !!!!!! AS it will show the WHOLE COON, prancing around , no matter where you my be!!!!!!


WIN WIN WIN WIN!!!!!!!
TREE that box barking dog!
Right in the back of you truck!!!!!!!


Looking for a catchy name for it, that would make it SALE !!!!!

For the record there was 2 coons and the trees did touch. Lol. I did look up the tree the dogs were on also did not see that coon. What crazy were the coon was he should have looked at me.
Idk why I can't get them to looked at led. My light has a strobe to. Still won't look. Going to try and find some covers for my head lamp. May be red or blue. May have to break out my old 5100 head.

5100 is a decent set up but a old oil lamp with a aluminum pie plate is better

You just wait on Doc's new light the "Tararizor", you will see a coon in every tree! Plus em up boys, watch those scores climb! Dave. P. S. Tell Corey that I am not happy about having no video to watch, 12 degrees here with 5% wind chill.

I think you solved your problem when You said he was a "Kid". Doesn't matter how bright the light is or what color it is. If you cant see well enough to see it until its pointed out.

Color

I have been interested in the valley creek smoker. I posted awhile back to see if anyone was using them. The color is more like the 5100 . I looked at them at the ss, and think they would be a great light for people that have a hard time seeing the coon with a whiter light. If anyone has one or tried one please post about your experience with it.

I don't know about this dim light stuff. The leds on each side of my nose are pretty dim these days and it don't help me find a coon. In a more technical note, I have a have a k-lite 21 volt and contacted Kelleys looking for a little brighter (led) for it. the did not have an led, but they sent a bulb that was quite a bit brighter. If any one interested in I can get the number on it.

If Doc doesn't use the name Tararizor, you are welcome to use the name. Get a 5100 head made to your specs and call it the Tararizor. Dave
