Exactly the point, but if that gets around, Real Tree is out of business. I was bear hunting about 20+ yrs ago and sitting on the ground with my bow. I had a camo baseball cap turned backwards, red & black flannel shirt, jeans, and white tennis shoes. I had a 300+lb bear come with 3 ft of my spot where i sat. Arrow was nocked, bow resting on my shoe, all i had to do to shoot was lift the bow up and draw. Bear walked right up to me so close i had to pull the bow and arrow back so the broadhead didn't poke the bear in the chest, he was that close. 95% of me had NO CAMO except my hat. So i am not a huge believer in all that stuff. I am sure it helps , but not sure if it is necessary in my opinion.

It does but still.. That's a pretty big grizzly bear and they are super close. If you don't hit that bear in the head after it charges you, you're gonna get mauled to death. They are wild animals and they can take some serious trauma unless lethal force is applied. There's no dangerous animal than a wounded animal.

This was great for me to watch!! Growing up and still to this day Fred Bear was my hero. He was the reason I picked up a recurve at around 7 years old. I was always loyal to bear bows and equipment. I didn't buy anything until the recent years that didn't say Bear Archery on it, and I still wouldn't use any other type of recurve bow. Fred did more for the sport than anyone ever. RIP Mr. Bear, you were a great influence to million's of young archery hunter's. Thanks for posting this video of the legend.......Darryl, AML.

Fred bear was the best bowhunter ever, notice his hunts were not in fenced properties, or pre scouted stands, he was very good with his bow knew how to stalk the animals he was hurting. Very nice man,talked with him for a half hour on the phone, we spoke about hunting all that time. He is why I loved bowhunting so much.

Well, I have studied Mr. Hill's public life for many years and whether or not people approve of his "public relations" methods, and weather you believe that he accomplished all that history has reported, we all have to realize that duplicating these hunts (which he really did accomplish) on film was a next-to-impossible task back then when movie cameras were big and bulky and the cameramen were not exactly hunters. Bringing them along for the hunt was a big obstacle to success as it was. We also need to bare in mind that Hill, Bear, Swinheart and others like them had bigger problems than getting these hunts on film; difficulties not withstanding. These men were working under enormous pressure from many members of the gun hunting fraternity who believed that serious hunting with a bow (especially on dangerous animals) was a pipe dream, a stunt; something you saw only in the movies. Remember too that if you are one of many who enjoy the sport of bowhunting, that it was only though the courage and determination of these bow-toting pioneers that the rest of us can walk into the woods with better than a prayer of bagging game with a bow. So, to the critics, I say: These early bowhunters were there. They took enormous risks. Give these guys a break. They've earned it. They deserve it.

Much respect to Fred bear I have met this man at least 30 times in my life growing up , I lived close to archery field and sports in Des Moines Iowa and being the only archery shop in central Iowa mr Bear was there often and I spent hours shooting talking getting pointers from Fred bear and he always remembered my name ! He was like that uncle you loved that u only seen every year or two ... and he was always too polite too push off the kids lol ! Met ted nugent probably more times then Fred bear ! But as great as uncle ted is he is a bit off in left field ... lol 😂! He is a bit harder to talk with ! I’ve led a great life no doubt I’ve drank beer with many stars while working at the Iowa state fair working the stage ... ringo Starr most down to earth star was Reba McIntire she was so nice . Garth brooks was great before he became uber famous then became a asshole backstage to the hired help lol! I was aloud too bring my boys along and meet some of them also .

Hanlon Razor , I beg to differ, tree hunting is done mostly in the midwest. and thats because, thats what works,, In Or. its spot n stalk same with say , Idaho, Nv. Wa. in Montana, you could probably get away with both forms of bow hunting, but Id say its for the most part spot n stalk. now these are just my thoughts on a few States I have hunted. But gotta remember, whitetail deer , are not mule deer, each species, is different and requires different methods to harvest.

In his Field Notes Book he took a Grizzly in 1956 without backup. He spotted the bear as his pack train was riding and the guides just thought it was black bear which they didn't think dangerous or worthwhile but Fred and his partner Judd Grindell decided to try for it The guides let them go alone. It wasn't until Bear stalked close he realized it was a grizzly. He took the shot and luckily the bear went the other way. It was not a large bear as grizzlies go but it was still a Grizzly. This hunt was also filmed. Fred was only 20-25 yards away when he shot it. Fred did have a 44 Magnum in him but later said as close he was and how fast the ran away had it charged him he would not have able to shoot in time. Later on the same hunt Fred took a fine Mountain Goat

sun Tao Shatner was a member of the Fred Bear Sports Club, he shot a black bear in Canada and wanted to track the bear in the dark, alone, with only his bow. Bear wasn't going to let him kill himself, Shatner probably started to argue, and so Bear threw him out. Another time at his home in Grayling, a newspaper writer interviewed Bear in his house the night before the bow season started. The guy had a huge cowboy hat on and it was dinner time at the home. The writer refused to take off the hat in the home so Bear threw him out. Bear was a really nice guy, but he had no time for jerks and fools.

Aluminums have been around since the 30s. WWII derailed Easton's progress. They started to get attention in the 60s and were popular in the 70s and 80s. But most people choose wood or fiberglass because it was cheeper. The arrows in this video are probably glass, but the same creating was done later on some x7 aluminums too. The bow is a 65 Kodiak. So the filming could have been between 64 onward. I believe Bear shot a Lion in 56 or 57 and another in 67 with his prototype takedown.

The bow is a 65 Kodiak. So he may have been using a prototype or early production run in 64. Could have been in 65. Or 66. I believe Fred painted the back of the bow white (can't remember if the belly was white too) for the polar bear hunt. You can see the arms on the quiver got paint on them. Before this bow he was using a 62 prototype. And after this bow he used a prototype takedown that can be seen in some of his african hunts. His lion was shot with it I think. After he realized the production costs were too high, he got the design of the takedown that we know of today. 68 patent, production started in 69. Bear used that bow till the end. Otherwise he shot some yew and osage bows early on. He used a few Grumley Deerslayers around the 40s. He used a 57 or 58 Kodiak on some of the British columbia and alaskan hunts. And he used either that 57 Kodiak or a 59 kodiak to shoot his record brown bear in 59. The photo doesn't show the bow very well. That pretty much sums it up.

Viewers SHOULD NOT forget bow hunter has rifle escort whereas rifle hunters do not need bow hunter's escort and that makes rifle hunters are much more powerful than bow hunters!

Ok, I want to do this with a recurve bow. However, the logistics are complicated. For example, does my guide provide the extra underwear? Lord knows I'm gonna need em. Another question, if a man runs through the woods screaming like a little girl can anybody hear it?

Fred bear shot left handed, however I believe he was actually right handed, but had to switch due to target panic. A most feared ailment for any archer

I doubt that somewhat, target panic can't be cured by switching your bow hand really. And old Fred used a bare bows with no sights too. With a modern compound with sights, the switch of your bow hand is rather easy, but not so with instinctive archery. So I rather assume that old Fred had a dominant left eye and the balls in his days to shoot left handed accordingly to that condition. The other option is that he tried to point the bow with his dominated hand as shooting a pistol, but that would hind the vision of his right eye again, which speaks against the theory.

Bear is right handed and left eyed. He shot left handed with a bow because he couldn't grip the string with his right hand. Back as a a kid in Pennsylvania, Bear was on his grandparents farm: if I remember the setting is right. Anyway his older sister was threshing wheat, by hand. Fred always pulled the wheat out of the way so his sister would swing at air. One time, he was too slow and the blade got either his most distal joint on the middle finger of the right hand. I have read that in one or two books and have a primary source. My P&Y measurer was my state's first P&Y measurer, oldest B&C measurer (may have been the first: 1967, defiantly oldest living), and the first Bear dealer in my state, starting around 1960. Fred Bear came down bringing his brown bear to a state hunting showcase. The two men meet, and Fred even spent a few hours at his house. Fred told the same story to him. The measurer also said that all the stories of Bear being a gentle and humble man are very true.

Sorry I meant Bear was right eyed. Got that mixed up because I'm right hand dominant, left eye, and shoot everything left handed. But instinctive shooting was a major advantage for him. Because both eyes are open while shooting: instinctive archers can shoot right and left handed bows. Bear was also a good competitive target archer in his early archery days.
