While stationed at Michigan's National Guard's Camp Graling for a week way back when...
we got to take a tour of the Fred Bear museum where we got to meet the acredited and famed Fred Bear him self.
at the time compound bows were just becoming popular Fred was still famous for his long bow method of hunting, we even got to see his own film produced for the museum about bow hunting. A great film and well worth the time to veiw if the oppertunity still exist.

the original museum burnt down in 1952 if memory serves me. Fred moved his factory and museum to Gainsville Florida in 1978, Fred died in 1988
