EK Archery asked if it would OK if they made a 130lbs compound bow for Joe Gibbs and we made a film about it.

Would it be OK? EK Archery offers to make Joe his own personal bow with the highest draw weight in the world and then I get to film it. Is it OK? HELL YEAH!

Joe's usual weapon is a 160lbs longbow, and has never shot a compound before. Here you watch him from first picking up a compound to trying the 131lbs world beating monster. Does the bow defeat Joe, or does Joe and the bow defeat the breastplate?
