A guy with no arms wins gold and silver in archery at the US Nationals
just damn.

WESTFIELD, Ind. – A man born with no arms defied the odds and took home first place at a national archery competition in Westfield over the weekend.

Using his feet, Matt Stutzman earned gold in the target championship and got silver in the open compound final at the USA Archery Outdoor National Championships.

Stutzman says this weekend’s results will put him in a great position to earn a spot on the US Archery World Cup Team.

What do you call a guy with no arms and no legs in the ocean? Bob.

What do you call a guy with no arms and no legs on the floor? Matt.

What do you call a guy with no arms and no legs in a leaf pile? Russell.

But yeah that's amazing! Congrats to Stutzman! He is definitely more impressive than any of us on this board, by a mile.

A guy who retired from EMS here has become a tournament archer since retirement and he's shared videos he's took of Stutzman shooting several times and it's absolutely incredible.

Here's a video that's a few years old but tells his story.

Man this makes me feel like a real ******* for bitching about some of the crap I've been through the past couple of weeks.

Dear armless dear armless, you have no complaint, you are what you are and you aint what you aint.

This man makes me feel pathetic for ever complaining about anything.

Truly my favorite jokes when I was in grade school. Great combination of being funny and a little risque to a mid-80s kid.

Wow, "what a man". He deserves this accolade. He's not the only one though as I saw a woman taking care of her family and buying groceries a few years back on tv. I am amazed that they can do so much without their arms. He was taking care of his brakes with his feet and I can't even do that with my arms and legs. God bless this man.

Sometimes us "normal" people spoil ourselves with doubt we should learn from him/them.
