He has 10% vision in one eye and 20% vision in the other.  He apparently only sees blurred lines and colors, but is the best archer in the world.  Crazy.

KInd of throws that whole blind squirrel getting the nut saying out of whack.

My 9 year old was just telling me about this guy.  We'll check it out together.

Looking forward to watching the Opening Ceremonies tonight (even though they're happening now!)

He`s been dominating for a few years. Without my glasses i have better vision than him but i  doubt i can hit anywhere near the target ..... amazing
