Episode Details

We are extremely honored to have Mr. M. R. James, founder of

Bowhunter Magazine, share some memories of his close friend, Fred Bear.

Fred Bear was one of the greatest bowhunters in modern times. But beyond his hunting accomplishments, Papa Bear did as much to promote modern bowhunting as anyone.

This week M. R. and Alan Altizer discuss the impact of Fred on their early bowhunting

careers as his films fueled their bowhunting passions. After meeting their

hero, they share their time spent with Fred and the realization that he was still

just another passionate bowhunter, a good man, and friend. M. R. shares some

little-known facts of contributions Fred made to ensure bowhunting’s future.

M. R. James and Fred Bear, what more could you ask for? We all owe a huge debt to

these two men who have devoted their lives to making the future of bowhunting

better for us all.  God bless them.
