"don't try to do this at home"..lol love the pill toss by his wife with arrow buzzing by her head.....talk about trust of you soul mate... this guy is simply a living legend ! This guy inspired a couple buds and I in the neighborhood while growing up... as we did "try this at home" way too many times...what could go wrong? was our motto.. great stuff!!
i'm curious why on the ring shot there were 12 dimples on the back drop where the ring or something was shot at previously. the studio had someone try it before? i never noticed this before. ???
I have never had the pleasure of seeing him shoot his bow 🏹 in person, but have seen many of his trick shots at the end of a show on TV while I was growing up throughout the 1990s.
Not only an outstanding archer he is one heck of a nice guy. I got to both watch and meet him at several events probably ten years ago. I even got to eat dinner with him and his wife where we shared some good stories.
This man is a great archer and was doing this kind of archery a long time b4 most! Deffo paved the way for guys like another worlds best archer lars anderson! That gut never misses! And can shoot arrows through key holes at a moments notice! And can shoot arrows faster than you can count them leaving the bow!! Makes you wonder at the level of skill our ancestors possessed when their daily survival depended on hitting their mark every time no matter whatever. Shits deep!! And an art!
Thanks to Byron I shot an arrow in my dad's three day old pickup. Wooden arrow with old steel broadhead. Attempting trick shots after watching him on the Nashville Network lol. Never forget the ass whipping I took for that stunt
...Hum....greatest trad archer of the last century.......hum..they seem to have forgotten about a guy named Howard Hill.....they may want to do a bit of research on the man...
@@JohnLynch-pm4or yer she’s ok but her firing arrows through hole not much bigger than the arrow and hitting a drip of water You got to admit that’s good 👍
Yeah sure he's accurate...but this is only one facet of archery...to be a complete archer means that you have mastered and your archery stands upon three pillars..speed ...power and precision...he is precise but his speed is like the second coming......he's slow as hell. Remember where archery came from and the manner it was used ..traditionally..this is supposedly traditional archery is it not , archery was used to feed one's self and family and its greater importance was that it defended them from marauders . Had Byron lived in those times...and tried to survive solely on his accuracy...he would quickly be killed by the archers of those times who were complete in their training...you wanna talk about precision...kasar the brother of Ganghis khan during an archery exhibition put on for visiting dignitaries fired three arrows that all hit their mark at 540 yards in rapid succession...the minimum requirement for a Mamluk to be allowed to join the ranks and have the honor of going to battle....he had to be able to hit a target at 70 meters the arrows had to pass under a rope place at the halfway point 3 meters from the ground he had to do this with 3 arrows the last of which had be be on its way before the first arrow even hit the target. Very few archers are impressive to me and Byron is the least of them ....it might be fun at children's parties but that's about it....in a duel of arrows I wouldn't be concerned about him one bit ...but he best be very concerned and have his affairs in order before hand.

I had the privilege of talking to the man. Down to earth very nice soul.
the ring shot on tv is the best shot i've ever seen.

Byron Ferguson is amazing. Seen him in person several years ago at the Ohio Deer&Turkey Expo. Truly impressive to watch.
Growing up I remember catching a few of Byron's live shows. I was always amazed by his archery ability. Incredible exhibition archer!

Byron's wife tossing targets, "Don't try this at home, we're professionals and I'm Byron's 12th wife." 🤣
I'm a big fan of Howard Hill and Byron Ferguson, I hope one day I can become as good as them with the bow and arrow
"Become the arrow "
He’s one of the very few people on earth who can literally bring his bow to a gun fight, and actually WIN!
Absolutely the best. Grew up watching him on shooting USA
For sure he’s an epic shooter

Had the pleasure to meet Byron on a caribou hunt in Quebec in which we both got nice bulls
He is truly the best to ever do it hands down.

I live in Bama and never heard of him, but glad Exodus told me about him! Haha
Nice vid !!
Stimo tantissimo Byron..grande arcere..grande personaggio
I'd like to see him do some longer distance shots out to 50 60 yards. I shoot a recurve and love traditional.
If you can find the show Impossible shots you can see him shooting eight inch balloons at 100+ yards as well as some other longer distances.

My idol
Howard Hill did split the arrow, but it didn't suite the director so , he did it again with fly-by-wire.
Tim Wells is my man
Bob Munden next!
James Jean now
...Hum....greatest trad archer of the last century.......hum..they seem to have forgotten about
a guy named Howard Hill.....they may want to do a bit of research on the man...
In my opinion, He is a better shot than Howard Hill.
You make it sound like he died
Cirral Figas
