Taking the Shot | Becoming T-Bone | The Story of Travis Turner | Be Real

  • There was a time when Travis “T-Bone” Turner was afraid to pull back a bow. That was long before making a name for himself as a world champion 3D tournament archer and hunting personality on popular Realtree TV shows and videos, of course. But when Turner was 10 years old, his dad bought him a bow for having good grades in school.
    “It was a 45-pound recurve and I didn’t have the strength at the time to pull it to full anchor,” Turner says. “Like so many people, I had a bad experience being introduced to archery. I went through the motions, but convinced I just wasn’t strong enough to pull a bow, I put it down pretty quickly.”

    People say they want a quartering away shot or a broadside shot, T-Bone’s tip of the week, they got to be pointed towards the truck. I haven’t forgot that since the first time I saw it. Bring back the bone

    I tell you what T-Bone I lost my Uncle Mark to Covid in 2020 and he was one of the good old boys that taught me a lot about hunting along with my dad. The work you and the boys do just fills that void and makes me want to get out there and hunt. All I got left is hunting, guitar, my family and god! Keep on making videos because I love ‘em!

    T-bone is the same in person as he is on tv. I was fortunate enough to meet him at the national turkey federation show in Nashville a few years back. I was actually a little nervous after watching him on realtree and bone collector for so many years but even though I didn't say much he talked to me like he had known me for years. So did edwin, micheals dad. I have alot of respect for him and I'm glad realtree produced this video.

  • @JacobSchmittDeerHuntingSchool
    @JacobSchmittDeerHuntingSchool 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    That’s an awesome story. I know T-bone will likely not read this but what if you never would have shot that tournament 5 days after getting a bow. I always say I think the best in the world at things never did it because of fear of failure. Obviously it take practice and work to be the best in the world at something but most people never start because they are to afraid of failing. BTW I absolutely loved the story!!!!
