Too much drama last night-went down a few notches for me. [Coffee]

I dont have to come out to prove shit to you. Me standing here today is a testement to my shooting ability when real bullets were flying towards me and the ability to place rounds where they needed to go on shithole boardings in the Gulf.

To be called a professional shooter and can not hit a target at 100 yards with a standard bolt action rifle is not a professional. THat is a sign of a choad as you so put it.
Keep defending your boyfriend as if it really matters when others are talking shit about someone who claimns to be a professional shooter. That means he shoots for a living and should be able to hit a target at 100 yards with his eyes closed. Time to wake up and smell the cordite.

Either you have the skill and understanding to back that shit up or your don't. There is a huge difference between thinking that you know and knowing that you know.

Many of you shoot your 400 or 500 rounds a year, read your magazine articles, and think your skills don't stink. Clueless... Push the keyboard away, pack your gear and come out to the range, and take your ass whoopin and start getting a clue, or.... stop posting crap like that and slither back to your tried and untested position of just how great you are...

I'm not defending him more so than calling others on their bullshit. Even he makes no excuses for his shooting that day. But there are more than a few in this thread that once again don't have the ability to think critically about the situation, and quite frankly are clueless about the various shooting skill levels in existance. I've seen it over and over again at every shooting competition I've ever been at. New shooter shows up, watches others shoot, realizes just how outmatched they are, either never comes back or readjusts their view of shooting skills and comes back for more.

So, you can make comments like a keyboard commando, or you can get a clue. Either way I could care less, but don't expect me to just let that crap float by without me calling you on it.

Call out goes to you too DD. Grab your gear, and bring it to the range to see where you rack and stack.

What on the show or in this thread? [ROFL1]

I love archery, matter fact its what got me started in Competitive shooting in the first place. I would win alot of Junior 3D shoots around Carson when my dad was stationed here. About year ago when ammo was becoming hard to find, I picked up a Ross 35(?) To start shooting 3D competitions again, admittedly it has taken a back seat to my IPSC/3gun Competition shooting, also I could never find any information where the 3D shoots would be held at.

I only watch the shooting parts, fast forward past everything else. Thank you DVR.

When is the red team gonna learn that their guy can't be beaten in challenges?

The shooting stages they've had look fun as hell. If there was a place somewhere that recreated them I'd go in a heartbeat.

Todays show was pretty interesting. Funny how some people choke up a little under pressure. I was kinda disappointed that they used the 226 copy with the British guy shooting it. Kinda gives an unfair advantage on that challenge... oh well!

I thought red team was bad. Blue team is worse!

As I've posted before too much drama (I know I know it's TV) if they concentrated more on the shooting and skills the show would be a winner.[Rant2]

man there are some whiney bitches on that show.

I had hoped the tall ex-marine with sand in his vag would lose, but he didn't.

Now what I'm wondering is if the short guy had just stepped up to him and said if you have a problem with me, lets step outside. (this would never happen on reality tv, I know) would the taller guy begrudgingly give him some respect for standing up?

Evidently they're holding open casting for season 2 of Top Shot.

I wonder how many of the people here who are so critical of the contestants from Season 1 will submit an application.

Better than everyone else on season 1?

$100,000 prize?

You can't possibly lose!

I think it's all the drama we've been critical of not their shooting skills [Beer]

here are spoilers from tonight's show to highlight:

holy moley two guys on the red team fail completely to hit their targets and they still send the young kid to the elimination challenge.

the kid was pissed, and rightly so. I'm glad he won.

This is a pretty interesting Show for me, I love the wide range of weapons and Shots they are doing. Shooting over the back with a mirror! [ROFL1]

Yea, it's that stuff that makes me tune in and watch - the rest I could care less about.

The multiple shotgun shooting always impresses me. The guy who shoots for Bennelli does something like 8 and that includes him throwing them up himself.

Yeah, I know one of the guys, so it's interesting to see how the TV editing portrays him, but I don't care too much for the drama either!

I watch very little TV, but if I happen to remember it's on, Top Shot is better than Top Chef for me![Cheer]

The Shotgun Shooting was pretty sweet! [Shotg][Shotg][Shotg]
