Shumpert twd

Shumpert (also known as "The Bowman"), portrayed by Travis Love, is a character in the television series The Walking Dead.

Shumpert is one of The Governor's enforcers. Like Daryl Dixon, his weapon of choice is a crossbow (hence, some fans who do not know his name sometimes refer to Shumpert as "The Bowman" or "Bowman"), although (also like Daryl) he is a marksman.

Shumpert participates in The Governor's attacks on the prison. When the second attack ends in failure and the army decides not to return to the prison, The Governor guns down the Woodbury soldiers, sparing only his allies Shumpert and Caesar Martinez, although the two are visibly stunned by the slaughter. The three then drive off together.

Shumpert and Martinez make camp with The Governor, then abandon him and form a group of their own. When The Governor joins Martinez's Camp, Martinez discloses to him that Shumpert had become depressed and reckless following the massacre, and was bitten by a walker, forcing Martinez to put him down.
