A Shot From The Past

Any of you guys know who this young fellow is. I use to really enjoy looking through his catalog in days gone by. And he had a special name for his catalog. Do any one know how he is doing these days?

Doug Kittredge and was it the "bow hut" ??????

Tony Sanders · February 23, 2015, 11:04:00 AM

Hey John, you are quick to the draw. You have the name right, and the store was the Bow hut, but that is not the name of the catalog(LOL).

ChuckC · February 23, 2015, 11:06:00 AM

Yup, Doug I can't recall the names but can't wait to hear them again. That was a couple years ago.

Just looked it up and BAM ! yup, I remember that name (catalog). I will let someone who REMEMBERS answer it.

Seems the picture was in the Bowhunters Digest. May be wrong. Long time ago. I remember his quote "small game is big game when you hunt with a bow".

Hey guys let your memory do the search, and not the internet(LOL). I am sure someone will know and remember the name of the catalog. I wish I had kept one of those catalogs.

Hey Joe that is it. The Archer's Bible.

Fred Bear's books were also called "Archer's Bible".

I'll have to keep an eye out for that Bow Hut version.

Cool.

Tim · February 23, 2015, 12:58:00 PM

Just saw this thread! I remember that catalog and Doug. Damn...that makes me as old as you guys!

A.S. · February 23, 2015, 05:55:00 PM

AARGH...I remember it too!

Guess that puts me in the "old guy" club as well.

joe skipp · February 23, 2015, 06:35:00 PM

I posted a thread last week and showed pics of Charlie Lamb and I in the catalog....now that's old!

DennyK · February 23, 2015, 06:43:00 PM

I may have that catalog at home, gotta look for it tonight when I get home from work. Cool stuff.

Jock Whisky · February 23, 2015, 07:41:00 PM

Used to get one delivered every year when I was in my teens. I couldn't wait to find a quiet place to read every page ...several times.

Tony Sanders · February 23, 2015, 08:58:00 PM

Do any of you fellows remember who was the Bow Hut Store Manager for MR. Kittredge?

Tony

Yohon · February 23, 2015, 09:01:00 PM

Bill Krenz ???

Tony Sanders · February 23, 2015, 09:05:00 PM

Yes John, you are once again correct(LOL), it was Bill Krenz, who is now deceased.

Tony

Charlie Lamb · February 23, 2015, 09:08:00 PM

Yep, Bill was manager for Doug for a while when he was just getting started in the biz. It's one of Bill's photos that graces the cover of the above catalog picture. A good friend gone too soon.

Let's take the trivia a little farther. What bow hides under those bow socks? What sight?
