Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

That is impressive.
Really impressive.
lot of trick shooters like herb parson could shoot moving objects with rifles.

Doing this with a bow is just amazing.

The only other people i have seen who can do this is some tribals in India.

Bhil tribes have been known to shoot flying birds with arrows. I have seen them do it with stones too. Not just once but 4-5 times in a row.

I have seen a tribal in an old DD documentary do the "draupadi swayamvar trick" ie. shoot a rotating fish idol in its eye while looking at its reflection in water below.

this was probably in the late eighties and that person then was 70+.

This is personal experience.

Historically:

geese hunted by egyptians with spears etc, bow and arrows and 'hunting sticks'. (source: pictures in the tombs.

Mongols hunting geese with bows and arrows. Source paintings and writings.

Aborginals hunting birds with the hunting boomerangs (not the ones with 'boomerang shape').

This guy is truly amazing, but i had heard the same stories from my grand father of tribal in our farming area in bihar, where they would take down a partridge and wild cock with bow and arrow.
