if that was in Iowa he could be in trouble if he did not have a bear slapping tag.

It did say in the very beginning of the video that he had no common sense! He just wanted to prove it I guess.

He was at our WV bowhunter banquet this past weekend and told this story. He is a great speaker and is as funny in person.

I love Fred. Met him at the Muzzy shoot 2 years ago. I walked up to the board to check the standings as he walked up. He introduced himself and we BSed for over half an hour. He's just a down to earth guy and he is that funny and excitable. He even walked over to shake my hand and say good bye at the end of the day. He was hooting and hollering all day and kept saying he didn't know how we all could shoot so many arrows as his fingers were darn near falling off. The best part was seeing him playing with his kids whenever he wasn't shooting.

Great video too!

I guess after that grizzly charge in alaska some years ago that black bear seemed like a pussycat.

I have a feeling he would be alot like that old trapper in the movie Jeremiah Johnson with Robert Redford."Skin that one pilgrim & I'll bring ya another".A real practical joker that you would have to "monitor" full time. I'd love to share a hunt with that guy!

I have met him a few times,and it sure seems like he is drunker than a skunk in that video.

His back yard looks like mine at times, though he has me trumped on idle commode count.

Does swatting the business end of a bear with an arrow qualify as "counting coup?"

That is wild and crazy stuff, and you have to love Fred laughign hysterically as he runs off victorious!

I read that young Indian braves often did this to GRIZZLIES as a challenge...

If that bear was any smaller he probably would have shot it...

I know a guide who feeds BB by hand - he's CRAZY.

He's careful and has been around bears for a long time - still crazy!
