Tim Wells is the real deal. When he bow hunts it's no sights, to include dove hunting with a bow. He fell out of a tree in Africa and his spear went through his thigh. He had to wait till the guy came back to pick him up to get help. A tough nut for sure.

May not be the first man to kill a grizzly bear with a spear, solo, and live, but i bet the list is a short one.

Ive always wondered how many arrows does one have to shoot to get as good as Tim Wells?

I cant remember where I heard/read this, but a logger was cutting the hardwoods on Tim Well's family property. Tim hunted there as a kid growing up. The logger said that there were arrows embedded in the limbs and trunks of most of the trees he cut throughout the woodlot. Figured Tim was squirrel hunting there a bunch as a youngun.

There was a recent episode where Tim shot a really big bull elk at considerable range. When he was taking about the shot, he said that he has block targets out the front door at intervals out to 100 (IIRC) yards and he shoots at them every day. That's pretty much the only way to get on that level I think.


Just happy to be here.

Relentless; watched him shlock big Louie (Mature muley) across a gulch in the short grass prairie.
Looked like about 200+ yards. Probably closer to 100. I started counting when he dumped the string “one thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand thr”. Almost three seconds the arrow was in flight. The guide took two steps back shaking his head and said “no way “

I remember watching him as a kid and he was talking about how to become a good shot with a bow. Said to get a block target cover it with a trash bag and keep shooting it till you could group a few arrows constantly. Then move it further and further back . Once you can keep you group consistent said you can take the trash bag off and start shooting at the dots

That elk shot was one of the most irresponsible, wasteful actions I’ve ever seen. They backed out and didn’t recover the elk till the next day. Early season and warm temps, you can about guess how much meat was rotten. But hey, apparently he eats coyote, so maybe he’s down with rotten elk meat

Outlaw99 I don't really disagree with you. At least they recovered it.

I live near him and the general opinion here is that he is a arrogant trespassing con artist. He is one of the largest heaps of excrement i have ran across.

He’s a heck of a bow shot, no doubt. He’s quite an entertainer.
But that “Bigfoot” footage is so bogus…………….

It was a joke.

And for what it's worth, I know several people who know Tim personally and live near him and they have nothing but good to say about him.
