I found this great interview on youtube. Definitely Tradgang worthy. Enjoy! History of the Bow: Fred Bear (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnsjO70tTJw&list=PL92888A6362480703)
that was great thanks for sharing.
Some interesting history! I had the priviledge of meeting Fred Bear in 1984. Something I saw in the video was new to me. If you look closely at Fred's right hand, the tip of his ring finger is missing.
I woke up last night and couldn't sleep. I watched all three parts. It would be nice to those vids to be added to Fred Bear's Legends and Pioneers thread along with the lost interview video.
I particularly took interest in his explanation of how he snap shoots. I liken that explanation to my own style.
Thanks for posting.
That is part of the Fred Bear collection DVDS. Every archer should own those DVDS. They are fantastic!!
Great videos, thanks for posting them. I really enjoyed watching them while I was having my morning coffee
Yep, I have it on DVD....good stuff!
Very Nice :clapper: :clapper: :clapper:
I found some footage of Art Young hunting in Alaska on youtube yesterday, pretty cool stuff on there if you can get past all the kids trying to emasculate themselves performing skateboard tricks and find it.
Enjoyed the videos :thumbsup: THANKS for posting :campfire:
Awesome videos, i could never tire of listening to that man, wish i would have met him.

That's great. Enjoyed watching. I need to get the DVDs. Thanks. God bless.
"From the tips of your toes to the top of your head" I haven't heard that for a long time..Love it. Thanks for posting.
I spent a couple hours watching some of these videos. They are awesome! Thanks for posting them up.

Glad you enjoyed the videos!
Some very interesting stuff in there. My favourite quote was "I am not concerned about distance of yardage, but distance of feel"
I'm terrrible at estimating range, but I know when a shot feels right.
Ditto on couple hrs of enjoyable viewing.
Thanks for posting. It made me think I lost a great opportunity. I moved to Jacksonville in 1973 when I was 13 and started bow hunting about that time. Just 1.5 hours away from Gainsville. Joined the Army in 1977 and moved away until 2000. Sure wish I had made a trip back then.
Thanks for the link, I found it very informative and entertaining.
