Sean Callanan - Traditional World Champion

Sean Callanan’s unwavering commitment to winning is about integrity. A personal matter between himself and his values, he competes against his potential in each course, not his competitors. Winning matters to him because it is excellence in action, the objective measurement of his ideas, strategies, and hard work. It is the active partnership of physical and mental strength trained, aimed, and executed toward a specific, quantifiable goal. His physical strength puts him in play at the highest level of performance worldwide; mental strength keeps him there.

World Champion Archer, Sean Callanan at full draw behind his GhostBlind Predator. He is less than 5 yds from the camera. Can you find Sean?

"I rely extensively on the illusion the Ghostblind creates to make point-blank kill shots in any situation. I am confident that you will completely disappear as I have from the mesquite of Texas to the snowy fields and fencelines of the northeast and Canada. Ease of set-up guarantees that I am always downwind."
