I've met a bunch of archers who will be famous in the future. Right now they are just bowhunters.

One of the highlights of my life was being able to sit down with FRED BEAR in 1988' in LasVegas at the S.H.O.T. show (Worlds largest dealer hunting,archery,gun,ammo show) Fred signed 2 luggage tags for me and he had one of the gals laminate them. Sadly 3 months later FRED passed away.I will cherous that meeting with him the luggage tags as well as the handful of 8x10 photos he sent me prior to his meeting over the years in writing to him.
 I have also met Glenn St.Charles (went to breakfast with him & son Joe and I slept right on the floor of P&Y museum) Tom Jennings,Paul Brunner,Roger Rothhaar,John Schultz,ED & Myrtle Miller,Anne Clark,Ted Nugent,M.R.James & had a couple visits at legendary whitetail trackers house LARRY BENOIT and was able to have Frank Scott (Fred Bears former oldest employee & archery historian),Stacy Groscup, Monty Browning,Gene Wensel,Jerry Hill,Doug Walker
& Byron Ferguson as guests at traditional archery event I ran for a dozen years.

I ate dinner a couple times with Tom Phillips around the campfire at Denton. That was before I knew he was famous for hangingout with some really famous people. Now I'll have to ask for his autograph!  :notworthy:    :notworthy:    :notworthy:

My Uncle has a brother, who has a second cousin whose sister dated a guy who knew a neighbor that met a carnival worker who ran a Tilt-a-whirl at the  summer Fair in Grayling back in the 60's that saw Fred Bear eating cotton candy and a corn dog at the same time.... sorry no fart stories here...

My wife sleeps with PAPALAPIN - Does that count?

I saw a live demonstration by Howard hill at the local theatre when I was a KId.  It is kind of what planted the seed in me.

I spoke to Fred Bear on the phone in 1967, and met him at the Greyling Museum in 1968.  I bough my 1968 Super Kodiak from him.

I have met Charlie Lamb.

My biggest claim to fame is the personal relationship I was honored to have with Jack Howard, although I never met him in person.

I knew Jack Bell personall (LA representative to the NFAA)

I was lucky enough as a young lad of 12 to be able  to see the great Howard Hill shoot grandma.He let us hold the bow and try to draw it.
I was also was able to meet Fred Bear at the Dallas Shot Show.What a thrill.
I also met Bill Negley at the PBS convention in San Antonio.

I was told that I saw Ted Nugent in concert when I was a senior in High School,  I don't really remember the details very well.
