Default RE: 103yd with Bow & Arrow in the wind??

ORIGINAL: Grandviewer

I'm saying if it is edited and we all say it was then the title says "first kill with X bow" then is it pure advertising andis it real? And not staged? I questionwhen you here someone say 103 103 yards and a pause and cutway to Pete drawing back his bow and taking a shot. It's advertising and nothing more. Must TV shows are reenactments unless you see the shot and the hit in one frame. Real or not it's to sell a product(s). This little videolooks good and nothing more and the shot might have been 103 or might have been 13,that's my take of it.
I'm not going to comment on if this shot is ethical or not only to say: To some a 100 yard shot is very easy and is done all the time.

That being said I think Grandviewer has nailed it. If you guys can't see that this is simply part of PSE's on going campaign to promote there new "speed bow"you need to pull your heads out. I also think this video was edited a lot! The truth is we have no idea how far that shot was, but I can say this is certain......there area lot of young hunters out there thinking to themselves "Hey ifI buy that bow I can make them 100yd shots too" and THAT'S the realsad part of this.
