Fred, I am the guy that sent a picture of me holding up two coyotes standing in front of my mom’s clothesline. It was packed with about forty Coon Hides, five Fox Hides, and a couple of Bobcat Hides. I had just taken them out of the freezer thawing them to sale. You sent back a picture of you sitting behind a humongous Brown Bear. It looks like his Brow is two-foot wide. I said it was a Brown Bear because his face looks too kind to be a Grizzly. A Grizzly Face “Constantly Looks Like” you were saying bad things about his mamma, and he’s gonna teach you to learn.

I like Fred’s shows a lot, very entertaining and educational thanks Fred!
This August 2021, I will finally achieve a bucket list milestone…Hunting with Fred. I will be traveling from Dover, PA, with my 14yr old Grandson to hunt Antelope with Bow & Arrow. The excitement and anticipation for both of us are building, and we are looking forward to a great adventure with Fred & Michele.
Fred & Michele’s kindness is incredulous.
I took my then 12-year-old daughter to meet them on their annual trip to Bass Pro in our region. Michele & my daughter struck up a conversation about killing an elk. Michele said what I’ve said to my 2 youngest for a long time – it is okay to not kill an animal, it is experiencing the outdoors that you’ll cherish most. I can’t thank her enough for those words. They made such an impression on my girl that she went home and baked banana bread for them (yes, we made another trip to visit).
Great advocates for being outdoors, hunting, but most of all just really nice people!
We love to watch Fred, he is our favorite hunter. His shows are very interesting and fun to watch
