Winged Helmet hi-res image?

Does anyone know if there's a hi-res image out there on the intertubes of the side-view winged helmet image?

I know the athletic dept used it on some things a few years ago (including the student season shirt), but I need a rather large version of it so I can make a stencil. See, I'm painting my new cornhole boards for the start of the season and I'd love to slap that logo on the middle of the boards.

If anyone can help, it would be appreciated.

You have to be a bean bag sniper to score a hit in those holes. I can't imagine after whacking down a six pack or two during some tailgating would increase your accuracy. Thanks for the info.

Like said before, similar to horseshoes, don't 'have to get a ringer' (i.e. in the hole). In hole gets 3 pts, on the board gets 1 pt. The finished boards are usually laquered heavily so they're slippery. There's a definite "form" that can be developed to land/slide the bag up and into the hole (especially if opponent leaves a bag just left or right - you can use it like a back board to 'bank' yours in)

The reason for the world, is to make us long for HOME.

It's not as hard as it looks. And similar to bowling it gets easier the more you drink until you hit that point where you're retarded and your accuracy goes downhill pretty quickly.

We're pretty much the same in terms of raw numbers (I'm 6-1, 180) but I find that it's usually medium or large for t-shirts (depending on the brand, etc.).

Anything long sleeve is large otherwise the arms are way too short.

Here is a pretty good image, although the helmet isn't in profile; it's turned a bit.

Hopefully you can blow up those and possibly use them as stencils. It will probably take longer, but I think it's worth it because the helmets look better at that angle than in profile anyway.

I am in the process of making my own cornhole set and wanted to make it with the winged helmet as well. I wanted it to look like you were looking head-on at the helmet. Here is a freehand drawing I did of it. I will probably make the outer lines curved so they look like they'd meet at a point at the back.
