Anyone interested in spear-fishing? 
My local lds, Divers Supply, is going to be holding a seminar. I really like this shop and they are only getting bigger and better. Anywho, this is from Kevin Bruington:
For the first time in many years, I have decided to schedule a spearfishing seminar in the middle of the summer. I stopped doing seminars in the summer (4 years ago) because we are so busy during this time. However, Divers Supply has stepped up in a big way for us and they have agreed to become a full line "stocking" dealer for us. This location will be stocking a full line of guns, shafts, tips, bands, & accessories. This is very important because we want our customers to have easy access to our products at stores who keep the products in stock.
For the first time ever, our Florida sales manager Rick Holmlund and I will be teaming up for a seminar. Rick will be doing an intermediate level presentation from 6:00 to 7:30 and I will take over for the advanced portion of the seminar (after the dinner break) from 7:45 to 10:30 pm.
This seminar will take place at Divers Supply in Tampa, Florida on Wednesday August 8th. The seminar will start promptly at 6:00 PM and end around 10:30 PM. The fee for this seminar will be $25.00 for adults and $15.00 for children (16 & under) when accompanied by an adult. The entry fee includes pizza and beverages from 7:30 to 7:45. We will also have several door prizes which will include one of our new Ocean Rhino Speagun bags.
This seminar will likely be capped at around 40 shooters. If you plan to attend, please make sure to sign up early (asap) so you don't get shut out. You must call the store to reserve a seat. They will take your credit card info and reserve you a spot. This is the contact info and address for the store.

Due to the time constraints of an evening seminar, we are going to set a more rigid time schedule for this seminar and focus on a few of the more popular spearfishing topics like freeshafting & understanding proper shot placement & shot angle. I will demonstrate these techniques using our Red Snapper shot model and those great Fishkilla underwater video shots. These Fishkilla videos have become a very powerful teaching tool for us and I can't imagine how we ever did a seminar without them.
Here is a basic time schedule and list of topics we plan to cover in this seminar.
Rick Holmlund (6:00 to 7:30)
1) Selecting the proper speargun (type & size)
2) Benefits & features of a basic speargun (line types)
3) Shafts, tips, & bands (types & variations)
4) Stringers and stringing technique
Kevin Bruington (Spear One)
1) Commercial Freeshaft Guns (benefits & features)
2) Shot model demonstration (placement & angle)
3) Fishkilla video presentation (actual underwater shots)
4) Q&A session.
Rick and I are really looking forward to this seminar. There is going to be a lot of information thrown at you in a very short period of time. Hopefully everyone will have a good time and maybe pick up a few tips that will improve your skills and make your spearfishing experience more successful & enjoyable. Hope to see you there!
