I shot with Fred at ATAR last Summer and he is a down to earth guy. He is a hoot to shoot with, and a good shot also. Anybody that spoke to Fred at this shoot he would stop and talk with them. Everyone there was wanting to talk with him and he took time for everyone. He gets as fired up on a good shot at a 3-D animale as he does on tv shooting a live animale. Well maybe not as fired up as he did on the grizzly bear. When he left WV I felt I had made a new friend.

Fred is a great guy and not "loaded" with money.  I was told that as an outfitter many of his hunts are "swap" hunts.  I was at two bowhunter meetings where he was the speaker last year.  He spent time talking to people outside of the meetings and he was great to be around.  Can not say enough good things about him as a person.

OOps, should have read pages 2 and 3 before I posted!  Ya, forgot that he lived on the cheap to spend all his money hunting.  Still, let me tell you, in person Fred is one great guy!

I just finished watching the show on outdoor channel.  They had it listed as New Mexico Elk, but in fact it was Stone Sheep.  I got to admit, it brought a smile to my face seeing Fred score on that Sheep.  I can only imagine the journey he's been on.  Long, hard and most importantly Fun.  I'm sure it has had its ups and downs.  Congrats Fred, you surely deserve it...Mike

We are all dang lucky to have a guy like Fred representing traditional bowhunting on television. Always shows respect and dignity for the critters and seeing that enthusiasm just makes me want to get my little boy out the yard to fling arrows. Big Kudos also to Easton for supporting a Trad Bowhunter on their program and giving him the latitude to make his choice on bows.

Fred,

Thanks for taking the time to post on this forum. I really like your show and appreciate the effort it took to accomplish your goal of the Super Slam.

One thing though. You think that you could not put a  lid on your emotions and really let us really see what you are feeling when you take a trophy?     ;)  

Just kidding.

Congratulations and keep up the fine work.

     :thumbsup:      :clapper:

Just wanted to congratulate Mr. Eichler on his awesome accomplishment!  :clapper:  

Mr. Eichler:  after briefly crossing paths and conversing with you at WalMart in Trinidad a few months ago, I can say that you truly are down-to-earth and the type of humble individual that any one of us can relate to.

Keep up the great work, because many of us "regular-joe's" out here are looking to you to bring our dreams of distant and exotic species to our television sets!

DirecTV Outdoor Channel did the same thing. Had my Tivo season pass set to "Bowhunting TV" so it missed the previous showing. Gonna setup a Tivo title/description wishlist with bowhunting as the keyword. That should fix those pesky directory programmers who like to change the program titles.    :knothead:  

Ditto on the excellent show.

I thought it was absolutely awesome when I watched Fred shoot that beautiful stone. What an accomplishment! I am personally  inspired that a blue collar individual such as Fred can hunt all of North America's big game animals. Way to go Fred, you really are just a bowhunter. Cool! T.

I finally got to meet Fred and his wife Michelle last night at the UBNJ Game dinner. He is an awesome guy to talk to and so down to earth.

I would just like to extend a sincere thank you to Fred and Michelle for making the trip to spend the evening with us here in Jersey. Fred told us a few camp stories and man did he have us rolling on the floor in tears. I enjoyed the evening and got to meet some great people. Keep up the good work Fred. Thanks again Jason "skippy" Bott.

Here is a pic of Me, my dad and Fred.
