Seen Ted Nugent in concert many times and I enjoy his music. This song and Great White Buffalo are classic. I met him at sporting goods store in Waco a few years ago and I was blown away by how nice he was. I'm looking at bows and I saw him several feet away. I want to tell him how much I Liked his music. I walk up to him and told him I was a huge fan. He talked to me like we were friends. I'm having a conversation with a rock legend about bows and bow hunting for about ten minutes. For a true Rock legend to spend the time to talk to me about one of his passions was awesome to say the least. I still get pissed off when people say negative things about him. He's honest and if the liberals don't like it that's their problem. We're just tired of them pushing their Socialistic ideas on the rest of us. Thanks for the music Ted God Bless.
I saw him at a little backwater sports shop in NJ once. Like you said, he's a genuine down to earth guy that's passionate about hunting and the outdoors
Rock on my friend. I have only every heard great things about him in person. His music is pure, his soul is pure, we need to recognize people like that more whether or not we agree on everything. In his case I do pretty much every time lmao
My brother in law is good friends with Ted Nugent. He goes hunting with him. We went to Nugent's shop in Michigan once and he was sitting behind the counter just ripping riffs on his guitar. Awesome.
Why do people insist on watching a video of someone they despise and then make nasty comments? Even if you disagree with his beliefs he is an excellent musician.
I have been watching and listening to the Nuge since I was a young kid. Raised to hunt and fish in the wild. This man had MUCH to do with my upbringing and I'm so proud to bring my son up in the same in same environment...
I don’t give a shit about his politics or rantings, just as Roger Waters has some radical views, but I still listen to Pink Floyd. I’ve always thought that Nugent was one of, maybe THE greatest and most original of rock guitarists. I just make it a point not to get my political and social beliefs from guitar players, comedians or reality show hosts.
As a former liberal I have to say since I've seen how corporate America works. If Ted was a bleeding heart liberal, I'm pretty sure not many would be calling him underrated. Just my observation. He was definitely an early target of cancel culture, but they failed. Just like everything they are trying will fail. But to each his own! Peace!
I grew up idolizing Fred waaaay back when I was still in single digits!!! He was a hero, read so many stories about him! Like the time he took his worst bent arrow to shoot behind a leopard 90yds.out lying on a ledge to bring it closer in India! .......Shot it through the lungs!!! Thanks for the help computer machine thigamajig!!!
My dad always did since I was young every year . Opening day he listened every year and never killed a deer on opening day. Next year comes and he forgets to listen and kills his first opening day deer 😂
I have two Fred Bear bows (recurves) FB was an inspiration to me in my youth, read his books and theses skill set have made me a successful hunter. long live Fred Bear in the hearts of every bow hunter.
I have a Fred Bear Kodiak Magnum . 45lb pull. Got it 43 years ago from my buddy. $25.00. Plus a dozen arrows. Arrows gone. My favorite bow to hunt with. It’s lite.
Anyone from Michigan can tell you Ted is pure Michigan just by the way he looks and acts. Michiganders will know exactly what I mean, no explanation needed.
There I was back in the wild again. I felt right at home, where I be-long. I had the feeling, coming over me again. Just like it happened so many times be-fore. eh. The Spirit of the Woods is like an old good friend. Makes me feel warm and good in-side. I knew his name and it was good to see him again. Cause in the wind he's still a-live. Oh Fred Bear Walk with me down the trails again. Take me back, back where I be-long. Fred Bear I'm glad to have you at my side my friend And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long Before too long. It was kinda dark, another misty dusk It came from a tangle down be-low. I tried to re-mem-ber everything you taught me so well. I had to de-cide which way to go. Was I a-lone or in a hunter's dream. Cause the moment of truth was here and now. I felt his touch I felt his guiding hand. The buck was mine forever more!! Oh Fred Bear Walk with me down the trails again. Take me back, back where I be-long.

Ted can play the guitar..hands down..been a fan since Stranglehold...also seen him in concert at the Coliseum in Richfield Ohio many years ago before I went in the service...love his dedication to the Armed Forces
I don't have my dad anymore, who taught me to hunt... and we also used to jam to this stuff all the time. I play guitar and I play this stuff all the time to honor our memories, and I carry the tradition on with my son with music, and hunting and fishing.
I was just 10 in '77 and always thought Ted was Crazy, of course I loved him! I was too young to realize he was a genius and to this day, still is. Live forever "America's-Motor City Madman" Thank You Ted for Everything Great you have given to this Amazing Country! I admire everything about you, G3
He's a great guitar player and writer and a great bowhunter he never puts down a.man that shoots a.Longbow or recurve and I respect him for that and he always says what he think.And uncle Ted will always have my respect keep rocking Ted.
Well, the lyrics are wierd. Its similar to Iron Maiden writing about long distance running, which they have. He is writing about shooting animals with bow and arrows..its too specific to make a good song imo.
We need more entertainers like "The Motor City Madman", who is genuine and honest for our children and grandchildren to look up to. I only use Bear bows, the most left handed friendly company without spending a fortune on special orders like Hoyt, Bow Tech, and Martin
Ted is an Icon of rock and roll and heavy metal-he is a man who enjoys life and you will never doubt where he stands -vocal -he speaks his mind-we all envy him for his dedication to the USA and its veterans-I am a veteran and a bow hunter-he’s welcome to my camp anytime
Alyssa Allen I have yet to hunt Mule deer, but they are just a larger version of Whitetail, and I can fill the freezer with that. GOOD LUCK! Stock up on the food, the trophies will never keep you alive.
7 years later lol im 35 and been ted fan since i was like 5 mom dad took us to see ted in cbus ohio at 10 years old. i seen him 12 times since then and my dad and i blast teds hunting songs before every bow hunt. sends chills up my spine. it would be awesome if you messeged me back so we can talk about ted/hunting. take care!
God Bless Uncle Ted, and as a combat veteran we understand the difference between draft dodging and a number to high. My dad served 67-69, my father in law, (5 yrs younger) never got called
I remember this song in 1989 on the radio Z-Rock and yet it didn't come out till 1995 but why is it that when I look it up there is no evidence that he wrote and recorded the song in 1989? I remember I recorded the song to my cassette from the radio and would hear it all the time back in 89. I was 15 years old, great memories!
teds been my favorite musician for about 30 years. saw him live double didget times. never saw a bad show. days on the green, monsters of rock,ext,,, great guitarest period...
this is one the greatest ted nugent songs i saw ted live at freedom hill sterling heights michigan for the sonic baptizm tour 2016 amazing concert to see. brownsville station was the opening band.
I saw Ted in Globe Az at his Family Conservation Rally. It was fantastic. He did it at the Fair aground because there were idiots trying to make hunting against the law. It didn't pass. I never get tired of his hunting songs especially Fred Bear. Ted is an awesome man. There should be millions more like him.
I would of like to talk with you when I was working on your house in Hanover mi but we both were very busy. But ejoyed it none the les. Keep on bringing it my felow Hunter.
I’m looking around and wondering who can make electric come to life this way? Joe Bonamasso maybe? But, he’s more Rock Blues, I’m thinking Nugent is the greatest Rock guitarist that has ever lived.
Saw Ted 3 times during the 70s. Great concerts always. In the 80s , he and Roger Mears were on the Budweiser racing team at Pikes Peak Meadows. They were taking a break. I said, Hey Mr. Nugent, can I get your autograph. He walked about 50ft. to me and signed my racing program. Nice guy. Got some Great pictures too.
For anyone who is interested in becoming truly a better bowman, Fred Bear is an icon, and cool for Nugent to acknowledge that and support an American tradition. Just Google some Bear videos and see for yourself.

Let them go up into the north west and let them tangle with a Grizzly bear or Polar bear or brown bear and get that effect that will cleanse the soul)
Dedicated to the Spirit of the Wild in all of us. From the first time I shot my bow, I knew. This was going to be for life. Still today listening and following Ted and Bowhunting 50 years later. Nowadays I set my soul free in the woods and waters of NC
This recording was made at the Racine, WI county fair. I do not know the year. Ted mentions Union Grove in the introduction to the song, referring to Union Grove, WI. He has been to the Racine County Fair numerous times.
Love him or hate him the guy has always lived an honest life. Respect.
How he supports trumptard then
@@robertallen3912 not a fan of Ted’s politics period. But as an outdoorsmen and Michigander myself, I can’t help but love the dude. There’s no better anthem for the deer camp.
I choose to love him!

A american legend! You folks are lucky
Rock on my friend. I have only every heard great things about him in person. His music is pure, his soul is pure, we need to recognize people like that more whether or not we agree on everything. In his case I do pretty much every time lmao
That's awesome!
I’m still waiting for my chance
Ted Nugent should be in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
But they don't have the balls to nominate him.
dude the hall of fame exists in your heart and soul.you can nominate whoever you want.
chilliams - He's nominated and inducted in mine !!
the problem is that most of the people would say : Ted who ?
ACTUEL1 - Yeah, rap, hip-hop fans and those who don't know anything about rock music.
DONGOE
Right
Only a badass like ted can chew gum, sing lead, and play lead guitar all at once
Mc DiggityDaddy underrated comment
He can shoot with a rifle guitar, in case.
Prince can do that with his eyes closed no disrespect to ted at all
Stevie ray... and hendrix both did
He's also on the hunt at all times.
My brother in law is good friends with Ted Nugent. He goes hunting with him. We went to Nugent's shop in Michigan once and he was sitting behind the counter just ripping riffs on his guitar. Awesome.
Did Ted & your BIL masturbate all over a pile of firearms?
Still play this on opening day in the middle of the woods as LOUD as my radio dial will go!!!
So you're the one spooking my buck !!
Damn no wonder the animals are scared lol
It works,tried and true last year
Why do people insist on watching a video of someone they despise and then make nasty comments? Even if you disagree with his beliefs he is an excellent musician.
Anthony's Outdoors u ask why people make stupid remarks? Cuz we live in a evil world.
#periloustimes - it's a fallen world. Thanks God for music and artists like Ted!
I have had the privilege to meet Ted and talk with him. We have some mutual friends and he is 100% AMERICAN MADE>
I have been watching and listening to the Nuge since I was a young kid. Raised to hunt and fish in the wild. This man had MUCH to do with my upbringing and I'm so proud to bring my son up in the same in same environment...
I may not agree with all of Mr. Nugents views.but i love many of his classic songs,and he is a underrated Music Artist
Same. He is an extremely talented musician and grossly underrated.
I don’t give a shit about his politics or rantings, just as Roger Waters has some radical views, but I still listen to Pink Floyd. I’ve always thought that Nugent was one of, maybe THE greatest and most original of rock guitarists.

ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED ROCK SONGS EVER...TED ROX..SAW HIM LIVE OVER 20X..BETTER EACH TIME
Bobby, do you live in/near Detroit?
DONGOE I do why????
dawn fillinger - I thought so; so do I.
I honestly was hoping that someone from outside of Detroit thought the way you do.
DONGOE I have seen Ted 9 times and I live in PA,saw him in NJ,NY and PA.
Met him,hunted with him,the best!
BOBBY RIZZO can't see him coming to Northern Ireland sadly. Naffin for him to shoot here.
Anyone from Michigan can tell you Ted is pure Michigan just by the way he looks and acts. Michiganders will know exactly what I mean, no explanation needed.
Fuck he's always been a great guitar player.
was the f word really necessary?
@@southendsurfer yes. What do you think this is, the 1950s? Welcome to the internet.
lol hahaha @@InternetSavage

I had the feeling, coming over me again.

Walk with me down the trails again.
Take me back, back where I be-long.
Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
Before too long.
It was kinda dark, another misty dusk
It came from a tangle down be-low.
I tried to re-mem-ber everything you taught me so well.

Greetings from scurry county tx....home of the GREAT WHITE BUFFALO, shot in the 1800's by J.Wright Moore....
I would of like to talk with you when I was working on your house in Hanover mi but we both were very busy. But ejoyed it none the les. Keep on bringing it my felow Hunter.
My Aunt has a pencil drawing of Ted in concert from 1974 , her friend was gifted , and the drawing is beyond awesome ! Quality times 2
Nuge could get me to run through a brick wall with his pre Fred Bear speeches. Convinced me to try to be a rockstar myself.
I’m looking around and wondering who can make electric come to life this way? Joe Bonamasso maybe? But, he’s more Rock Blues, I’m thinking Nugent is the greatest Rock guitarist that has ever lived.
What.
He has always had his own sound. Always smoking.
Ted wish you could show up for the Shriners Sportsman to get together in Michigan played your song Fred Bear all day long I love it
Saw Ted 3 times during the 70s. Great concerts always. In the 80s , he and Roger Mears were on the Budweiser racing team at Pikes Peak Meadows. They were taking a break. I said, Hey Mr. Nugent, can I get your autograph. He walked about 50ft. to me and signed my racing program. Nice guy. Got some Great pictures too.
Happy Birthday! The King of Feedback! 13/12-20
Its impressive how well he is playing especially because you can see he's very sweaty.
Dear Ted, thank you. period.💙overcome💙 this Beautiful Masterpiece. Both of You.😘
... love his shows.... great guitar work
...
I have a hard time believing Ted has been sober his entire life. Like him or not, he is a kick ass musician and performer!
That's probably a lie.
The first of many times I saw Nugent in concert was '77, my all-time favorite live guitarist!!
One of the best guitarists ever next to Jimi Hendrix, and just such an inspirational person, coming from Michigan as well, mitten love
For anyone who is interested in becoming truly a better bowman, Fred Bear is an icon, and cool for Nugent to acknowledge that and support an American tradition. Just Google some Bear videos and see for yourself.
I love Ted! I saw him in Mke in the 80s! Grand slam jam! It was a perfect night! Best concert night ever!!!
There I was, back in the wild again
And I felt right at home where I belong
I had that feelin' comin' over me again
Just like it happened so many times before
The spirit of the woods is like an old good friend
It makes me feel warm and good inside
I knew his name and it was good to see him again
"Cause in the wind he's still alive

Take me back, back where I belong
Oh, Fred Bear, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
Before too long
It was kinda dark, another misty dusk
And it came from a tangle down below
I tried to remember everything he taught me so well
I had to decide which way to go
Was I alone or in a hunter's dream?
"Cause the moment of truth was here and now
I felt his touch, I felt his guiding hand
The buck was mine, forevermore
Because of Fred Bear
I'll walk down these trails again
Take me back where I belong
Oh, Fred Bear, I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
We're not alone when we're in the great outdoors
We got his spirit, we've got his soul
He will guide our steps, he'll guide our arrows home
The restless spirit forever roams

Take me back, back where I belong
Oh, Fred Bear, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you on the big hunt before too long
Oh, Fred Bear, walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong

In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind, I hear, I hear Fred Bear
(I hear ya Fred,
Talk to me,
Yea,
Its all right
Yea, lets go hunting baby
Say Fred, you go up that ridge
And I'll go down in the swamp
We'll get that buck)
(Fred)
(If some of our teenage thrill seekers really want to go out and get a thrill. Let them go up into the north west and let them tangle with a Grizzly bear or Polar bear or brown bear and get that effect that will cleanse the soul)
Nuge opened for KISS in 2000 on their farewell tour,maybe KISS should open for Nuge.
Real, American, Patriot...he really does bleed red white an blue! Thanks Ted for all you have done for this country and music!
We need more REAL Americans like him in the entertainment world
I would love to meet him i grew up listening to his music and learning to play his songs .I think he is honest and real
Only Ted can get away with wearing a shirt with his name AND a picture!!! Keep rocking and keeping us free Ted! 💯🙏🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks for uploading this!!
awesome! thank you for uploading this!
Hell yah! Dodgson family supports you uncle Ted!! Keep killing it 💪💪
No problem there. Killing & playing guitar are all Ted seems to enjoy.
Dedicated to the Spirit of the Wild in all of us. From the first time I shot my bow, I knew. This was going to be for life. Still today listening and following Ted and Bowhunting 50 years later. Nowadays I set my soul free in the woods and waters of NC
The coolest rockers called him " the nugget " seen him in Hollywood or not sure ,walking around. Like a Elvis or Jimmy siteing...
Wow... Nothing compares today. Nothing but Ted... The BEST Talent/Song ever. Only Musicians know how complicated this song is. TRUTH

Ted is the real thing - no punches - he tells it like it is and mucho respect for him for this!
This is a pretty bad ass live performance right here. Ted Nugent is definitely an underrated guitarist.

This recording was made at the Racine, WI county fair. I do not know the year. Ted mentions Union Grove in the introduction to the song, referring to Union Grove, WI. He has been to the Racine County Fair numerous times.
