    I ask all of my staff and repeat customers for a picture with one of our products in the picture. I understand where it can get carried away with some pictures and there is a pile of stuff next to the deer. I think if it is done the right way you can have a good picture to help promote a company and not offend most people. I ask them to have the deer (cleaned up as best they can) with whatever hunting clothes they were wearing, one of our hats and either a bag or bottle and there weapon. I don't even like when they use both products because I don't want it to get that Nascar feel.

    However you take the picture though if there is one product or 50 there are some that are just going to whine and ***** because lets face it that's what they do.

    I have a friend on fb that shot one of the smallest bucks I've ever seen post many picks with his " sponsors" stuff all over the deer. I laughed and showed all my buddies at work. Everyone wants to famous. I do find it in poor taste

    no but I was happy to see one guy pose with his deer and broadheads, knowing he had to use a tracking dog to find his deer.

    I don't know about wanting to be famous. Being a part of something, yes but most people that are on prostaffs know they will never get famous by representing a product.

    I see a lot of people video taping their hunts with the dream of getting rich and hunting for a living.

    Again, I think you have a misconception as to why the majority of people do things. I believe the majority, as in my case, film their hunts for different reasons than to become rich and famous. Number one, first and foremost, I film my hunts so I can see the shot and make sure I track that deer properly. Secondly, it's so I can share my experiences with my family and friends. I do produce the videos and put them out there for other people to view, but it certainly isn't to become rich and famous.

    But do you drag products into pictures of a taken deer?

    Yes. I take pictures with and without products. I have a couple companies that have provided me with sponsorship's, so I will take photos that they can use to promote their product as they see fit. Same for the company that I am a member of the Prostaff. When I take the promotional photos, I do make sure that it is done tastefully and only with one product in the photo. The deer is always the focal point of the photo.
