there is really only about 3 or 4 guys on there that are any good. Was kinda hoping that lil dude woulda whopped that guys ass that was calling him names and crap on the last episode. The pistol shooting so far has been the highlight of the show so far.

I was thinking that I could shoot better than them, but then again there dealing with stress of beining on film, and all the backstabbing, so maybe they do shoot better than me.  I couldnt shoot with somebody screaming at me to hurry up and so on....  But the first guy on the red team that couldnt hit paper had no exuse.

I like to see the different courses or competetions.  HATE the rest.  I was disappointed in the hype.  TOP marksmen my a$$.  None had even shot a bow before, then you have guys that are proficient in only ancient weapons, or pistols blah blah blah.  If it is indeed a competetion to find the best or TOP SHOT, then have them be killed out on their inability to shoot, not dramam club.

I can't disagree with you a bit. I watched the first couple of shows. I wasn't impressed. -With the shooting or the 'reality hype'. Even as I have recently earned my NRA master card for Standard Pistol, that doesn't make me a proficient SASS Cowboy, Bianchi, Falling plates, Skeet, Trap, or pistol Silloette shooter. Hell, I've never even picked up a bow, although that does interest me. As a hunter and someone that practices a bit with rifle and used to shoot rifle a lot, I am quite proficient with long arm though. But the class of shooters they brought to the table with particular 'personality' is only for the camera. That part sux.  

I've shot next to many of our finest law enforcement officers and am seldom impressed. Fact is, most LEO's don't get enough time to practice. And on the show, aren't there at least a few that are current/ex LEO? I know rifle shooters locally that could easily stand up to many of the contestants on the show. Many that don't have near the credentials those competitors do. Several of the primarily rifle shooters that I know are also proficient with pistol. I didn't see that with this group of contestants... -Again, I haven't been watching the show past the first few.

i love the show. im sure there are alot of marines out there that are ashamed of the way the guy one the blue team acted, when he set up his teamates. then when someone pulled his card he starting acting like a bitch. name calling and such. oh heres a fun fact. that kid kelley went to the same school as me. kentwood and he was in rotc like i was, a few years latter of course  :chuckle:

I like the show and have been recording it since the 1st one or 2. That guy Adam bugs the hell outta me, all his whining & name calling! He is a punk! But I am surprised at how poorly some of them shoot and at like 20 feet! One of the shows where Kelly won the elimination with like a 600yd shot was cool but I expected more from the show. And that cowboy Denny sure has been sucking too. I didnt know Kelly was from this area - I like him & Pete the best then JJ and Chris from the Blue Team.

And Carp- you just a got DVR!?! Sweet arent they? They FREE you from the TV schedule and all the damn commercials! I couldnt live without it!

I you watched he last show, right before the shootout they showed a promo of the "next" show and showed Kelly in the promo  :dunno:  :bash:

Then at the end of the show they showed Kelly and Pete in a rapidfire pistel shootout, and only the last two were supposed to do that,  :rolleyes:
