Aloha Everyone ,
Was surronded by pigs a cupple nights ago and couldnt see a thing with a headlamp . Put the light on a stump and still couldnt see pins . Anyone have any home made bow lights or used hawglites before??
Do you need one light to shine on pigs and another light for sites??
Thanls all

Hi paka. I just recently made a new stabilizer out of a minimag flashlight. It was pretty easy. I got one of the lights that takes 3AA batteries. It has a LED bulb so it is really bright. Lights up well at 20yds and I think will do ok at 30. I drilled a hole in the end cap of the light and inserted a bolt that fit the stabilizer hole on the riser. I had to grind down the head of the bolt to get it to fit in the body of the flashlight but it was worth it. I got this idea from REV, Ausie and Kyle. I saw thier's the first time we met. They had some made out of mag lights with 2D cell batteries. I wanted something a bit smaller. If you want me to post pics let me know and I'll do it tonight after work.

Here is the Mag Lite that Greg copied

I use the ordinary bulb as the led is not bright enough when you put a red lens in

haha thats a really nifty idea... i might try that

I don't use a red lens, I use amber. I have yet to test drive mine on hogs.

I have a lithium light takes two 3v batts. and is real bright its also light I think its a scorpin flashlight I have it on my ar-15 and I can see at least 40-50yrds. Thanks for the idea

Thats a great idea . Find a bolt that can screw into stabizer hole , take the spring out the back of mag light. Drill hole to fit bolt through rear , replace spriing and wha la . Somthing like that?? I know what I'll be doing tonight. Thanks guys
