What an awesome group of friends to help him like that.  I'll raise my hand as well and admit I was tearin' up.  What a show.

I just watched Tred's bear hunt. It is without a doubt, the best hunting show that I've ever seen.

My 6 year old watched with me, and was very inquisitive about Tred's wheelchair and how it happened. I think he was really touched as well!

I only got to see part of it, and not the ending: I was amazed and honestly inspired by this (wonderfully) crazy guy.  This is a guy who has shown us all how much a person can really love this stuff and puts his "money where his mouth is" every day.  

Awfully nice counter to the endless threads here and elsewhere about all the things that bowhunters find distasteful about hunting shows.

I will agree with all the other positive comments made so far.  Getting that wheelchair through the bog to the bear was a monumental effort and I commented to my wife that I wish I was there to help.

Here's a man that will not allow this devastating injury keep him from his passion.

Amazing commitment to live life the best he can even with the devastating events he has experienced.  I loved the show and was very moved by it.  Watching those people who were so dedicated to making his dream come true tells you something about the man himself I would say as well as those who made it happen for him.  Can't see them doing that for just anybody.

First time I saw Tred was a short promo for his show.My impression,braggart,macho man, the type of person I wouldn't want to spend much time with.Flipping channels one day, there was Tred hunting with a Longbow.That's all it took.I came to realize Tred was just like the rest of us.He takes shots that are marginal,blows stalks,great sense of humor.I sensed he had a deep need to be liked,just one of the boys.I liked that he had a respect for the animals he hunts,they were not just a furry target to be used to sell merchandise.Reading different forums I came to realize he was loved or hated for various reasons ,some real some imagined.I loved that on his hunts you never knew whether he would be successful or fail.He was able to convey that failure was acceptable.Some of the best hunts end in failure, unless you have a sponsor to push.I had no doubt that Tred would keep on keeping on, after all he is the "Man".I've noticed that since his misfortune more people seem to be looking past the "Promo" and seeing the man.Shortly after his misfortune I sent him an email,  Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others..I have no doubt he has bouts of fear,but if you watch his shows he will share his courage.

Don't have cable and would love to find this online, but couldn't find it on Versus.com...was anyone else successful in finding it? I'd LOVE to see it. Tred is THE MAN!

That was a great show. To see all of his best friend pull together pulling and pushing  him to the tree and him delivering the perfect arrow was AWSOME!!

I only caught the last half of the show, but is without a doubt the most insprirational hunting show I have ever seen.  The drive and determination of not only Tred, but his friends can be an example for all of us.  Way to go Tred.

Truly heroic. When you talk what makes a man a man, Trad shows it all. How brave he must be to even put himself out there in his condition for everyone to see and do his thing. Most people would just want to hide.

God bless Trad Barta

Right on guys,Barta is the man,and always will be.The bear hunt show brought a tear of joy to my eye.Another VS hunt show guy named Steve Scott needs to watch Tred.Mr.Barta understands hunting and his editorial speeches are priceless.Now ,the question is can Tred straighten out Benny Spies and get a Barta bow in his hand? Barta Is "The Man"!
