So many lights!!! Triple threat,Trifecta,G2

So if a person was looking for a high end light, what would you recommend?? Regardless of price. Looking for opinions and experience from you guys. Im mostly just a hide hunter looking for a real good light to be proud of. Something to spend some money on without regretting it later.

I really like my Boss light. Has green " cats eye" option but don't remember it actually helping me find a coon lol. Good light though.

Boss

Try the Boss light, I have a couple of their cap lights and one of their heads and have liked everything about all of them. You just can't go wrong in my opinion dealing with Bruce Conkey. Hope this helps narrow your search a little.

size of spot

I HAVE HUNTED AROUND SEVERAL DIFFERENT LITES SOME HAVE TIGHTER SPOTS LIKE THE LASER PRO OTHERS HAVE A MORE OPEN ( NOT EXTRA WIDE ) LIKE THE BOSS . I PREFER A BELT OVER HAT LITE . EACH ONE HAS ITS PLUSSES AND MINUSSES . WITH THAT SAID I WOULD BUY ANOTHER BOSS WITHOUT THINKING TWICE ALL THE LITE YOU EVER NEED AND THE 28 VOLT RUNS FOREVER .

Laser Pro Torch,I was impressed w/its briteness,battery pack size/weight,BUT....
was wondering Y there is a dead spot when useing the colored lens options?
Anybody know.
I've called the # on there Ad., no response ,not even a call back when I left a message,so if customer service is an important part of ur desision then Conkey's BOSS lite! These guys have a handle on customer SERVICE!!!!

This light was never intended to be a spot light, but more of a wide angle flood. It will not be as bright as others, but gives hunters options others don't.

i would recomend valley creek all day! thevalley creek pro is one of the best lights ive ever seen, the only problem ive heard of from the boss is that the cords pull out, but other than that theyre great.

Outlaw we learn as we go. I never imagined people would use the cord for a handle to pick their lights up by. Anyway Kevin came up with a surefire method to keep the cords in place. He said you can tow a truck with them now.
There are many good lights out there and it makes me proud that when the conversation comes up about quality lights Boss Lights is usually on the list somewhere!!
The most important thing is, I truly feel that by working with Kevin and coming up with new ideas for the lights and getting those ideas in the market place, I am giving something back to coon hunting. Yes some day when your able to turn on a light down here in FL and shine a coon in Ohio our lights may not seem like much. But today they are shining bright!!

Thanks guys

Put in my order with Bruce Conkey today. He took the time to talk me through his lights and my specific needs. Im excited about getting my new light and cant wait to get it out in the bush.
