    If I need to use a flashlight to get to my stand in the dark what color lens should I use. I have always used red but I heard from a guy at work that says I should use a blue light.

    Many new rubs and a new scrape 20 yards from my tree. :)

    I heard somewhere that guys tend to see blue better than red.

    I'm talking which color is less likely to spook deer. I have always used red but I am just curiouse what others use if any.
