Meet Bear

Bear Pascoe, aged 38, hails from Porterville, California, where he grew up immersed in a western lifestyle surrounded by cattle and horses. Throughout his youth, Bear was actively involved in football, basketball, and competitive team roping, showcasing his passion for sports involving livestock.

Despite receiving numerous athletic scholarship offers from major colleges across the western United States, Bear opted to attend Fresno State. There, he excelled both academically, earning a degree in agriculture education, and athletically, becoming a two-time All-Conference Selection in football while maintaining a strong connection to his western heritage.

In the 2009 NFL draft, Bear was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers, but he made his mark during his six seasons with the New York Giants. Notably, he played a pivotal role in Super Bowl 46, catching four passes that contributed to the Giants' victory over the New England Patriots.

Beyond his football career, Bear distinguished himself as a dual-sport professional athlete. He spent seven seasons in the NFL from 2009 to 2016 before transitioning to professional rodeo. Beginning in 2017, he competed as a steer wrestler in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), continuing until 2023.

Bear's personal life is intertwined with rodeo; he is married to Katie Jones, a skilled barrel racer and daughter of World Champion Steer Wrestler, John W. Jones Jr. They reside in Morro Bay, California, where they pursue various professional and entrepreneurial endeavors together.

“We met Bear several years ago at a youth football registration event. My son Troy instantly connected with Bear and we enrolled in his training program. Troy saw benefits right away with regard to footwork and agility. As a parent I appreciate the aspect of mentorship that Bear provides. Troy has continued to love the game of football and thrive at the Varsity level. Wherever football takes Troy I know he will accredit aspects of his play to Bear’s impact.”

Marci Beddall, CTE Secondary TOSA
“My son, age 11 attended the football camp run and coached by McKenna Sean (Bear) Pascoe in August 2022. Bear was amazing with all the boys. He communicated very well with them. He was very patient and understanding. Bear taught many skills from footwork to lineman drills. What was the most important part of the camp was that my boy had so much fun. He can not wait until next year for it. He regularly talks about Bear and the things he learned from him. I would most certainly recommend his football camps to anyone looking for a great camp.”

Smokey Legarreta, Gooding Rec. Director
“Amazing experience for myself and my sons. Bear Pascoe executed a well planned camp with great communication and expertise. This is a great training camp for football players and my sons gained valuable foundation and position knowledge on both sides of the ball. I highly recommend experiencing Bear Pascoe football camps.”
