Matt Stutzman — Armless Archer — profile on ‘Real Sports’ (video)

Armless archer Matt Stutzman goes into the Paralympic year with plenty of motivation.

That he’s reached the highest level of competition after being born without arms, of course, but also because of what happened at the London 2012 Paralympics.

Four years ago, Stutzman qualified as the top seed but lost in the Paralympic final against Finland’s Jere Forsberg, who competed in a wheelchair but with both arms.

Stutzman left his first Paralympics with a silver medal.

This year, he’ll be looking to improve not only on that but also on a round of 32 exit at the 2015 IPC Archery World Championships.
