Yea, he is a total @ss. But what a shot !! I watched him shoot that goose with his longbow a couple of days ago. WOW !!

Last year I saw an episode where he and a "friend" went offshore fishing. Tred was an overbearing, no-it-all jerk the whole time. All I could do was sit there and think "who in the hell would be his friend if he treated everyone like that" . At the end of the episode, the friends defends Tred by saying "that's just the way he is". If any of my friends talked to me like that, they would probably need a new hunting buddy or at least a boot removed from their @ss.

You think Fred Bear didn't fling some arrows at moving targets?????

Please.
I never said he didn't.He has done alot of things that are considered unethical today.


I usually don't pass judgement on ethics because that is for each individuall to decide for himself.


But when you fling arrows at something you just jumped up at over 40 yards and video it for the world to see.

It would be one thing if he was half as good a shot as Fred Bear was but with his weapon of choice but he isn't,atleast from what I have seen he isn't.


Before you ask,I have used wooden arrows and recurves before.I choose not to hunt with them though.

I've only seen one of His Shows in my life. My first impression of his show left me wishing I had changed the channel earlier!
It was the show when he was Sea Duck hunting with the Retriever....the
dog had so much trouble getting back to the boat in the currenthe had to go after it.
Itis an opinion that was formed after only one viewing but sometimes thats all it takes to see what you personally dont care for and wont spend valuable time to repeat!
If it was a Reality show type of thing he was trying to achieve I think he did that. Reality being he's agood example that someone with a TV show can be a bad example.

Do you have any idea of Tred's fishing background? Google it. I haven't done so (because I know his fishing background).....but if I was going to I'd try "Tred Barta + Tuna Fishing"

No huge Barta fan......but I'd also like to see an episode where someone tried to stick their foot up his ass.

I think KTFO would come into play for the kicker.

How many bears have you killed with a long bow and wooden arrows, arrows that you made yourself?!!!! The dude is a stud. He could hide all of his screw ups, by editing his film, but he doesn't! He doesn't care what anyone thinks!He peed in his waders to kill waterfowl!!! If he sold out, and used modern equipment, his kills would go up even more. I love the guy!!!
