Matt Stutzman, the armless archer

One of the top-ranked archers in the country is 37-year-old Matt Stutzman of Fairfield, Iowa, who has medaled in a sport that many would have thought beyond his reach: he was born without arms. Lee Cowan finds out how, with a simple bow and arrow, a man who just wanted to provide for his family became an inspiration. (This story was originally broadcast on November 3, 2019.)

He had good parents and a strong will and he's a really nice and positive guy. He'd be a good guy to hand around with because of his positivity.

[@awa_de_uwu__-]

Hand around 🤦

[@ppjskh]

Man, I’m legit sobbing. He’s so inspirational and such a humble person. He deserves all the best, I look forward to seeing him compete at the Olympics. 🇺🇸❤️

[@adamslater7486]

What a positive attitude! Well I can't get a job so I guess I'll learn to shoot a deer with an arrow. Most people would just file a lawsuit or collect disability.

[@warnerrobins8542]

I have So Many Questions. Not about archery but the rest of his life

[@oogrooq]

Is sitting an advantage in archery? Is that why he hasn't been in the Olympics?

[@CelestineE7]

Try archery and you will find the answer to your question...

[@hollitheexaltedempress6957]

The chest may be the clue to success if nothing else helps.

[@djdigital3806]

🤔

[@mikelbrenn111]

He maybe good but I can beat him with rock-paper-scissors game.

Who is here after he won gold in the Paralympics - Paris 2024 🥹.
