[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2453267, member: 113268"] I only go 1 or 2 times a year so I am no expert. A kill light works pretty good but I would not do it without at least a cheap thermal for scanning. I had hunted with just a kill light and had some success. When I got the hand held for scanning, I was amazed at how many I would not have known were there if I had not had the thermal. Also, You are limited in the distance you can shoot with a kill light. I have also found that if the hogs are feeding, they ignore the light. If they are moving from point A to point B, the light will scare them and you will never get a shot. Thats just my experience. I now have a hand held scanner and a thermal clip on, which is freaking awesome. You don't need a high end thermal unless you plan on shooting at hogs hundreds of yards away. I would not bother hunting if I had to go back to just a kill light. [/QUOTE]
