Today I had the honor of sitting down with Mr. Fred Eichler to discuss bowhunting, stewardship, and even touch on Fred’s contributions to modern recurve bow and trad equipment designs.  His passion for bowhunting has taken him all over the world in pursuit of his next adventure, whether it's hunting brown bears in Alaska, pronghorn antelope in Colorado, or coyotes on neighboring farms.  Fred truly believes that any animal with a bow is a trophy, which I personally appreciate.  His personal quest to complete the North American Super Slam with a recurve bow reflects that state of mind. In mid August of 2009 Fred harvested a cow Tule Elk to become the first to take all 29 North American big game animals with a recurve bow and complete the Super Slam. Fred has been fortunate enough to share his love and enthusiasm of the sport with fellow bowhunters across the country through his television shows and personal appearances. If you ever run across Fred in the woods or at your local bow shop you’ll be greeted with a big smile and friendly handshake. Bowhunting is more than a passion for him, it’s a way of life.
