Was wondering what you guys thought of posting successful harvest pics. I like to see what other people are taking, but was wondering if ya'll thought it was bragging or being conceited.
I don't think so at all.... I too love to see the animals and the country taken in.

Posting pics is a great encouragement to all trad hunters. Also, seeing what equipment (bows, stands, broadheads, etc) is a help too. I enjoy the success of others.
A camera is just as important as your bow and arrows on a hunt.But i gotta get a digital camera so i can post pics.I have a 35mm right now.From what i`m told,a 35mm won`t work.
Braggin...naaaaa....but I also think anything you take with trad equipment is a trophy myself.
I think it's great myself.....kinda helps you be there with them...now I just need some of my own

Now some pics could be better presented.....I don't think an animal all covered in blood and blood all over the face is a great shot myself, but that's me.
I think they can be presented in a way to show respect to the animal.....
just my thoughts

I call it being proud of what you have taken BIG or small.And it helps on the story.
NOT posting pics is a hangin' offense.
Killdeer :readit:
If it was fair chase and taken with traditional equipment then by all means post pic's and tell the story. As long as the pic's are respectfully done.
i love looking at the photos,i'll even surf other sites to look at trad kills

I think posts should (almost) always have pics!
I now wish i took more pics over the years then I did, on many hunts I went on I never had a camera. I have some pics but most are on film, only really the last 2 years started to take digital pics, so I have some, I now carry a small camera all the time when hunting(something I wish I did long ago)
Are you kinding... I get on TG two- three times a day to see what everyone is getting. BUT ... you all need to include an equipement list with the pic. please.
Joe
love the pics. :thumbsup:
I really enjoy the pics. Heck yeah it's braggin, Why shouldn't you be proud of doing something good.Most of us don't get to do it often enough. Just check out the TAG SOUP thread!

I don't think you should be allowed to post a success story, unsuccessful story, new or new to me bow story without pics. It may be braggin but believe it or not that's ok!!!!! Picture's make the story that much better!!!!!

Pics are great.
Post them up...I like to see whats going on all over the country... :thumbsup:
I like to see my fellow trad hunters success. I'm happy for them and I hope to learn from their stories. Having only recently started trad hunting, I hope they are happy for my success as well, when I have some...lol

IMO including pictures with any post that has to do with a harvest, scouting trip, family and friend shooting, build a long, new bow or unique equipment, a visit with a special friend or place, etc...makes the post just that much better.
When I was a kid I didn't like books with out pictures and now I don't like forums with out them. :) :)
Ditto on what Miss Killy said!
AK.
Love 'em (wish I had some this year - LOL)

I guess who cares if you are braggin!!! Everyone on this website understands the work and skill it takes to harvest game with a trad bow. Post em and do a little braggin too!!! I see the pics and it encourages me to get after it even harder. I like to see people that are successful, plus I like showing my non trad buddies it can be done.
I agree with Killy! I say post em' up and be proud! :archer:
This place would be boring without pics. It's not bragging - It's sharing and I agree with Killy also :)
