Tim Ferriss, New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Body, and The 4-Hour Chef, read the Delta Sky magazine article about Archery Tag® and knew the bow and foam-tipped arrow was something he had to try. He contacted John Jackson, Global Archery Products, Inc. Founder/CEO, and they discussed the sport as well as Tim’s numerous ventures. In October, Tim sent an email to “a short list of friends who are world-class at what they do” including John. He asked John to appear on his creativeLive national live webcast The 4-Hour Life: Health, Wealthy, and Wise to provide archery instruction.
Midweek of the IAAPA expo, John flew to Seattle, Washington, to honor Tim’s request to shoot an apple off of his head, and in just over 10 minutes, teach three first-time archers how to shoot with precision. When they all hit the center hole of the target, Tim exclaimed that it was just like a Disney sports movie ending and dropped to his knees! This is a must-see video!
