Default Arrow Affliction TV Show

Has anyone watch a show called "Arrow Affliction"? I saw a show last night. Kind of a new age extreme archery show put on by a kid named Brackett.

It was all done up with rock music (I like rock, so don't get me wrong) and shooting at just about anything. I was kinda intrigued watching him shoot clay pigeons and such roll across the ground, but the show kinda crossed the line when he was out trying to wing shoot geese and ducks on the fly. Or when he was doing extreme range shots at geese swimming or standing on a beach. Or the 30 or so arrows he was shhoting at doves in corn field. The whole show was about fling as many arrows as the could and just giggling about what they did and how boarderline stupid it was. I am sure it was all in a controlled environment and "safe" but it really came across as a bunch of backwoods nut jobs that give archers a bad name.

The also wanted viewers to write in to give the new ideas as to what they can shoot at, inviting more and more extreme stuff.

Are all the Arrow Affliction show like the one I saw last night?

I've seen it three times, and yes, they are all the same. Trying to be the next Nuge, and his shooting skills are on par to his point.

I started to watch it the other night. I turned it after about 15 mintues. I figured any show that is filmed in the basement of his mom's house, where he still lives, is not really worth my time to watch.

I haven’t seen that episode you mentioned yet (it’s on DVR) but I love his show. It’s finally a change of pace and some thing different from all the here comes a giant buck, thwack. Those get old.

I like his attitude and creativity in the show, I don’t think he is anything like uncle Ted. They hunt a lot of different critters on that show and for me its very entertaining. One of the better shows to come along in a while.

I was thinking the same thing Mike. He burned up 3 dozen arrows on clays alone!

I watched it partially a couple of times (second time because I thought I might have caught a bad episode the first time). Can't stand it. I don't know what demographics it is aimed at, but certainly not me.
