        I’ve never seen anything like this guy in my life! He makes Byron Ferguson look like a rookie.

          I have had a bunch of friends refer me to this video, as well as seeing it commented on a bunch, including a thread started here by Dave. I have likewise, avoided commenting on it, because I didn’t want to come across the way I will likely come across, but I can’t help myself.

          When I watched it for the very first time, I was not “blown away” in the least. In fact, I rolled my eyes…literally. It just doesn’t impress me at all. The guy is an incredibly fast shot. I’ll give him that, but that’s all (I’m specifically referring to only the archery aspects of the video).

          I would be willing to bet all the money I have in the bank, that Byron Ferguson is a much better shot than this guy. Granted, I don’t have much money in the bank right now, but I digress.

              I also think Byron is a better shot. He does live shows, and films them, rather than edited flicks where you don’t know how many shots it took to hit the target. There was a thread here where someone’s son kept shooting at the target, taking out the arrows that missed the bulls eye, and reshooting them. Eventually they were all in the bulls eye. That is OK for a 10 year old, not an adult.

              Byron also said: “If an arrow hits to the left of the bulls eye, then another arrow splits that arrow. That is a mistake, not a Robin Hood.”
