Title: Fred Bear Quotes
Post by: Bmac on June 25, 2012, 10:02:00 AM

I just purchased one of the Compton prints of Fred Bear for my local Pheasants Forever banquet auction.  I'd like to have it framed with a Fred Bear quote under the print.  What are your favorite Fred Bear quotes?

don't know it word for word, but it goes something like: A moral and ethical bowhunter, while in his treestand, is 20 feet closer to God

His greatest words........to me.

Somewhere I heard he said "a man can get awfully hungry hunting with a bow and arrow" or something real similar to that.
