Bob Hood? The gentleman you asked about in an earlier photo on the right -- my guess would be Carl Strang or Styles???

Bernie - You cracked me up with that guess. Even Doc will have a tuff time topping that one!

Wade Phillips · « **Reply #183 on:** October 16, 2009, 08:00:00 PM »

Tox - Sorry our mystery bowman is not Bob Hood.

Not sure which photograph you are referring to when you said...

"The gentleman you asked about in an earlier photo on the right -- my guess would be Carl Strang or Styles???"

The photo in your post on 10/13 at 5:18 with Fred Bear on left and next to him on the right is Karl P. It is a guess but both Styles and Carl Strang are balding.

I don't think these names were offered as yet:

One of the brothers Gordon, Don or George?

TimZeigler · « **Reply #186 on:** October 16, 2009, 09:13:00 PM »

Erwin Ketzler?

CrookedStick · « **Reply #187 on:** October 16, 2009, 09:26:00 PM »

Omigosh...has anybody guessed Don Hootman?

Evidently one of 8 successful Michigan bowhunters in 1938.

This guy's gotta be the one...from Michigan (the Gordon brothers were not).

Whadaya say Wade?

Bernie

Edit: dang, someone already tried Hootman...oh well.

I second "Don Hootman"!

Rigs · « **Reply #190 on:** October 16, 2009, 10:26:00 PM »

How bout Tommy Thompson?

Happy hunting,
Jason

Sorry guys, our mystery bowman is not Don or George Gordon, or Don Hootman or Tommy Thompson or Erwin Ketzler. Lots of good guesses in that batch.

Tox - In 1940, Carl Strang had less hair than the fellow on the end of the circa 1945 lineup photograph. I'm sure he is not Styles. I'm going to have to work on finding his name as hard as you guys have worked on the mystery bowman.

At the rate you guys are going now, I'm certain you will discover the mystery bowman's name this weekend.

Tox Collector · « **Reply #192 on:** October 16, 2009, 11:12:00 PM »

Wade, Can you tell us whether the mystery man was a well known archer in his day or just someone tagging along with Grumley and Bear on the hunt?

TonyW · « **Reply #193 on:** October 17, 2009, 09:07:00 AM »

Joseph Hebert, of Detroit

DGW · « **Reply #194 on:** October 17, 2009, 01:13:00 PM »

Wade , lets try Bert Terry

Grant Young · « **Reply #195 on:** October 17, 2009, 09:56:00 PM »

Wade- I haven't participated in this because I've been swamped at the office. While I was hunting today I thought of this thread and rather than go back and review all the answers I figured I'd throw Ray Stannard in. Right time and place and an early hunting cronie of Mr. Bear's. Grant

Wade Phillips · « **Reply #196 on:** October 17, 2009, 10:22:00 PM »

Tox - The mystery bowman was not just a tag along, he knew what he was doing with a bow, but not as well known like the other three shooters in this photograph...

Nels Grumley, Carl Strang, mystery bowman, Fred Bear, another yet un-namded bowman...

Wade Phillips · « **Reply #197 on:** October 17, 2009, 10:27:00 PM »

DGW – Sorry the mystery bowman is not Bert Terry.

Tony – Sorry the mystery bowman is not Joseph Hebert, of Detroit.

Grant – Yes, the mystery bowman does look a bit like Ray Stannard, but sorry he is not Ray.

Tox Collector · « **Reply #198 on:** October 17, 2009, 11:10:00 PM »

Thanks Wade -- I'll keep trying!

Tox Collector · « **Reply #199 on:** October 18, 2009, 09:50:00 PM »

Robert Cooper???
