My wife and I bought our first house this fall and I have been chipping away at the piles of crap in the basement. I cam across a copy of The Freshwater Fisherman's Bible, and it had this awesome picture in it:

Thought you guys might appreciate it!

Retirement village.
awesome!!
Wow! And she bow fishes too :)
Her brace height looks a little high but it also looks as if it works for her...lol
Awesome!!!
Thanks for sharing.
God bless,Mudd
The copyright date for the book is 1964. Retirement village for her is probably a good bet. Who knows though maybe she still shoots and is on here? Wouldn't that be cool
I have a picture of a young lady that was prominently displayed in a Fred Bear magazine ad. She is bare from the waist up and is proudly holding a Bear recurve in one hand over head. Can't post it here because it is not censored. Captioned: "Fred Bear showed me how!" Fred had a good ad agency.
Could it be a young Killdeer?
Another avocation that I have is riding my Harley. This picture actually appeared in the January 1942 issue of "The Enthusiast". This is how you go bear hunting on a Harley.

I love looking at old photos.
Thanks for sharing!
Ric O'shay in your "other" photo is the lady holding a Bear 76er. I understand that there was an ad like that in Playboy in one of the months in year 1976 and the rep from Bear got fired over the photo.
This one?

Hermon - You got it.
Jon - Sounds to me like Bear was looking for a scapegoat if indeed they were fired. The ad game goes through multiple hands and crosses many more desks for approvals and review before an actual ad hits the market.
In any case, either (both) of the two ladies pictured are very photogenic. Can't say as much for the biker. :saywhat:
The woman in the 1st pic is fine. Naturally beautiful without all the disguises commonly employed in today's models.

...and they both have nice bows too..lol
The young lady in the second picture looks like she was hunting bare!!! Wonder if she rode her Harley??
The bowfishing lady looks like a mate for life candidate (not that I'm looking).
