I just finished a Podcast series about him. Credited with killing 3,000+ bears, fought for the CSA during the Civil War, took Teddy Roosevelt hunting twice, and lived to be 90 yrs old. Oh, and he was a black man born a slave. The story was on the Bear Grease podcast.

Sounds like something I'd like to watch. Thanks man.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Yep, Greenville, MS. It was a great listen from Clay. I could listen to one of the guys he interviewed, Hank Burdine I think was his name, tell stories all day. Bear Grease is a great podcast for anyone looking for something to listen to.

Not only did he take Roosevelt hunting, he roped and caught the bear and tied it to a tree.

Bear Grease is a great podcast! Probably my favorite, and I listen to a lot of them.

Mr. Burdine recently passed and we lost a great story teller, a wealth of knowledge on the Big Muddy River levee and an all around great individual!


experience is a freakin' awesome teacher....

I hate to hear that, he seemed like a wealth of knowledge.

Holt Collier was a black confederate cavalry soldier. Unfortunately, we never learned about him as it is the victors who write history after all.
