While scanning the channels I landed on Fred shooting a antelope with a longbow. A 17 yard shot and the goat was down. Looks like Fred is trying to add a new challenge to his hunts.

I always enjoyed watching his show, back when I had cable. Glad to hear that he is using more trad equipment now. It always seemed to me that he enjoyed the recurve more than the compound (though it never looked like he was lacking joy on ANY of his hunts regardless of method), but he was "paying the bills" more with the Hoyt sponsor and their compounds. I would imagine the fact that he collaborated with Hoyt to produce his model of recurve, lends him a lot more lee-way for using them in the shows that they sponsor. Kinda like he found the secret to getting trad stuff in a commercialized industry by making them money selling a very nice recurve.
