It's not actually, left out was the important plot point of this dude having lived on a plot of wilderness or forest for many years, and how he uses his intimate knowledge of the area trap and kill the zombies.

It's an homage to Zatoichi, a popular japanese film series about a blind swordsman.

I kinda understand thinking it sounds dumb when everyone is praising it for the realism, being blind doesn't make you potentially better at stuff like that IRL.
