I don't use a light unless I absolutely have to, but when I do I use a red light. I've often wondered if they can see it.

When I'm forced to use a light, I use my smallest pen light and cover it with my hand. I will open my grip just enough to illuminate the area right at my feet. I like to go 100% lights out for turkeys. Keen bustards they are.

If its pitch dark and walking a logging road etc I don't think it hurts a thing. If your are walking the woods and set up with in ear shot and sight of him it might. I often hunt birds that roost with in 100 yds of the road on the wma that see a dozen 4wheelers roar right by them right before daylight and they gobble just fine off the roost. I remember hunting a bird years ago that would roost at time over a main road often within a rocks throw of a main parking area. I think it depends on what they are used to.I still don't use one however.
