My son sent me this video. Watched it and it just seemed unbelievable as the guy shot arrows faster than most of us could shoot a gun, although if it is a fake, it is a good one. Also checked around and nobody seems to think it is fake.

Actually many think portions of his videos are heavily edited and even down right faked.
Me? Couldn't care less about that part.
Like others I don't like how he shoots an ultralight draw weight bow while pretending to somehow recreate "combat" archery as it was "really" practiced centuries while spouting a bunch of out of context revisionist history BS while claiming that everybody else in the world is stupid and doing it wrong.
Go back and watch his videos, knowing that he is only able to support "hypothesis" by drawing a VERY low draw weight and ask your self these questions:
Is what he is doing actually capable of
1) Killing another human in armor?
2) Killing a large game animal?
3) Demonstrating a consistent level of accuracy capable of winning a tournament?
