Hey Guys,
I'm currently putting a presentation together for the Annual Hunter Ed Instructor Conference here in CA. My topic is "An Introduction to Tuning the Hunting Trad-Bow for Optimum Arrow Flight, Accuracy and Performance".
This will be a short 60-75 minute presentation covering the BASIC steps of tuning a tradbow to achieve a optimal arrow flight for the ethical harvest of game. I have the outline pretty much sorted out, but I need some images/pictures to be displayed behind me as reference material (Just supporting pictures, I don't want it to be a death by power point presentation). I have and can take pictures of most of everything I need, but there are some things I don't have and I know a few of you might have some better pictures that will look a LOT nicer than mine stored on your hard drives.
Here's what I'm asking for....
If you are willing to send me pictures to use in my presentation, I ask they be yours and not something you copied from the internet. I'd like your permission to use the photo's for this presentation (I will not be using this to make money, it is just an informational presentation for fellow Hunter Ed Instructors who want to learn more about hunting with traditional archery equipment). I would like to create a "THANK YOU" list of names who contributed photo's at the end of the slide show, so please include your first and last name with your submissions. If you are willing to help out and share some pictures, please send them to...

Here are some images I could really use...
Selfbow (full, handle)
English Longbow (Full, handle)
Modern Barebow (full, sight window & plunger rest)
Heck... I'll be happy to look at/use ANY bow pics you want to share!
Harvested Game with a Traditional tackle clearly visible
Arrow resting on knuckle
parallel, tapered & barreled shafts next to each other
self nocks
ANY tuning pictures you have (ie: weak shaft in flight, bareshaft groups, paper tears, etc.) they will likely be better than my pictures.
Chisel Point and Expandable Broadhead pictures
A Hunting Arrow set-up for EFOC
Broken arrows
Close up of dead center hit in a 3D target or paper bullseye with broadhead tipped arrow (If you have a shot you're especially proud of, maybe I can share it with a bunch of good folks.)
THAT's IT.
THANK YOU in advance for ALL the help!!!
Sincerely,
Mike
