Fred Bear (March 5, 1902 – April 27, 1988) was an American bow hunter and manufacturer. Although he did not start bow hunting until he was 29 and did not master the skill for many years, he is widely regarded as a pioneer in the bow hunting community.
In 1967, Fred Bear introduced the legendary Kodiak Hunter. For 2022, the recurve bow returns with enhanced shootability and blistering performance. The new Kodiak Hunter is a 60" AMO and is crafted with a shedua riser and sensational grey glass limbs.
Skilled workmanship, top quality material and precision machines resulted in a high demand for these well-crafted bows. Bear’s various models of the Kodiak bow became best sellers, and are still highly valued today. Fred Bear sold the company to Victor Comptometer in 1968, but remained president.
Fred Bear sold the company to Victor Comptometer in 1968, [4] but remained the president of Bear Archery. The company was not one of the first compound bow manufacturers, but eventually found success with early models like the Whitetail Hunter.
The 2023 Bear Execute takes 90 years of archery excellence and packs it into the Bear’s most competitive hunting compound bow ever produced. To further capture the legacy of iconic bowhunter and founder, Fred Bear, the 2023 lineup of Bear bows sees two more new models that take value and adjustability to new heights.
