I’ve been watching Tred Barta for a few years now and can honestly give him a large part of the credit for me buying my first Longbow. Doing things the “Barta way” has been a n inspiration to me. I believe he is one of the most inspirational people on television today. Even more so, since suffering from a spinal stroke that left him paralyzed, but not crippled. I only hope that my will is half as strong as his should I be faced with such adversity. Thanks to him, I learned that it’s possible to hunt (and succeed) the way I love to hunt. With impossible goals, “primitive” techniques, and unwavering integrity.
