here is an interesting article about his efforts

Where?
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

By the way, he found an arrow from a past year that was further than his official record of about 1.18 miles? The lost arrow shot was almost 1.25 miles. Alan is the only person I have met who has a specific form of synesthesia where he can tap an arrow and listen to the tone it makes to tell if it is tuned properly for optimal flight with a specific weight bow. I’ve also seen him tap a bow to tell the draw weight by the tone it makes.

I guarantee he has shot further. He has broken the record likely for several years, just he was never able to find those arrows. Dedicating time to find them is the hard part.

I heard he can flick the bow string and tell you how far it will shoot. The man is a genius.
