Bear Archery Fred Bear DVD Collection, Multi

excellent library

A definite fun adventure to watch these old films. I remember some of them from the old TV show American Sportsman. A few I had never seen before. For those of us that love bare bow archery these is a must for your collection. This is bow hunting at its best. To me this is one of the must have components to any archer or bow hunters collection. Howard Hill, Fred Bear, Ben Pearson and the pioneer Art Young makes any serious archers collection complete.

I would give this 5 stars if it played well on my TV home entertainment system. It skips around though so I have to view it on my computer instead. If you like the days of Fred Bear or are interested in his hunting and archery adventures then this is for you. Very exciting hunts including Fred stalking to within 30 yards of a Grizzly before sending an arrow home. Icludes interviews with Fred about the history of archery and a documentary of Bear Archery in the Grayling days. Videos are grainy old time movie quality because that was all the equipment of the day was capable of producing. Fred Bear truly was the father of modern archery and the modern hunting show. Eight hours of really good stuff.

What an unbelievable deal. All of the old vintage Fred Bear movies all included in one DVD set. I had many of these old individual movies on VHS tapes, but they have deteriorated over the years and most are unwatchable now with either the sound or picture disappearing. So when I saw this DVD set, I had to buy it. I dont believe these were digitally remastered in any way. The picture and sound quality looks just like the old film movies, but that is OK with me, it has kept the old vintage feel to these treasures. They are definitely a step back in time quality wise, but thats what makes them so cool. When I think of archery and bow hunting, I automatically think of Fred Bear. I remember as a very small boy watching some of the old Fred Bear movies on TV, I believe they were on Curt Gowdy and Grits Greshams The American Sportsman show. There was even an episode with Fess Parker, the old Disney Daniel Boone character hunting grizzly bear with Fred. When I started to play these old movies, it catapulted me back to a simpler time in life. Fred Bear was responsible for instilling in me the love of traditional archery, hunting, conservation and sportsmanship. I have been shooting traditional archery for 43 years because of Fred Bear. I highly recommend this DVD set. Thank you for the memories Fred Bear.

Watching these recordings are so much fun!

This is some classic footage. It can be very slow while the details of travel unfold into a hunt. I really enjoyed the interview with Fred. Ive only watched 2 of the DVDs so far. I recommend these for the history buff.

Bought this for my hunting man who is a huge fan of Fred Bear. He absolutely loves it!!! Awesome collection. Very informative and great watch for someone who enjoys hunting but isnt a die hard fan.

Great entertainment and biographical stories!

very fun to see how they did it back in the older days not with a compound bow it will make you want to shoot a recurve bow

Seemed like a better value than his books, and hours of entertainment. My husband has watched multiple times, and said it just shows that you dont need Name brand gear to be a prize hunter
