Default Headlamp use for hunting

Does anyone use a headlamp for hunting?
I thought it would be good for field dressing in the dark
Suggestions on reasonably priced excellent models?
Thanks

My wife bought me an Energizer brand headlamp last Christmas. LED, red and 3 settings, runs on 3 AAA batteries. I think it was around $12, works well and is very light weight.

I'm the guy that shoots the deer you just passed up.

I don't think too many deer will be passed up here in NJ.
Due to the unlimited antler less and permit pricing!
