We are thrilled to talk para archery with three-time Paralympian Matt Stutzman. Matt, who is also known as the Armless Archer, won a silver at London 2012, was 4th at Rio and placed 9th at Tokyo. He has also competed and medaled at multiple world championships. We talked with him about how the sport works, what strategies competitors use and the advice Olympian Michael Johnson gave him.
Follow Matt on Twitter, Insta and Facebook. And check out his cherry-on-top BOOM in Team USA's 2021 Paralympic commercial.
