had used the Tred Barta statement "my way, the hard way, the Bear way", would people have been offended threatened by it?

Sorry, just could not help it. I gotta know.

The fact that he prolly would have gotten sued I'm betting someone would have been offended. Maybe not butalso Tred is WAY to full of himself and thinks he is some sort of "revolutionary" with what he does so I'm pretty sure he never wouldhave ever wanted to say that. Bear is still the manTred is not.... I'msure its coincidence but Tred Barta and Fred bear are very similar names so maybethats not treds real name, makes ya wonder, haha jk.WCL

Probably. Is it true?

So are you asking because you really care what we think? Or because you like to "hear" yourself post?

It must be one or the other, right?

The point is, I doubt people would still care about, or remember Fred Bear if he would have had that type Attitude.

I recently read his field notes, pretty amazing hunting he was doing!

Gotta be one or the other. LOL[:-]

Jeff, I guess you are special. My thread only got 1 page and yours 15 or so. I'm jealous.

Not!!

LT I always find it funny when people ask "What if" about another person. The reason your question is hard to answers is because of who Fred Bear was, and how he conducted his public life/image.

Fred did not care about his, hard or any way of hunting. Fred was a hunter, he hunted to hunt, some may think my last comment is simple, but it's not, IMO

And this my friend is what seperates hunters from Tred Barta's.

This statement should be posted in every hunting camp, pickup truck, and treestand, and ground blind, and bow in America. Grand Slam Germ. Grand Slam.
