Ohhhhh that is so unfair. Last season there wern't any shooters close to his caliber. I was at Perry when someone crossfired 2 "9's" on his 50yd target. They took the bottom 10 shots and he accepted a 98 LOL, rather than reshoot. He lost the NRA Bullseye championship by 1 point. He has won quite a few since then. Well it will be fun to see. Thanks for the heads up Isabel

In season one, they had some non shooting related challenges such as knife throwing. I would think it could be possible one would struggle with throwing a knife no matter how skilled you are at a pistol or rifle.

I wonder what is in season two? Throwing ninja stars and hitting apples with a bullwhip?

I hope the best for Brian!

different expectations

Post by gulliver62 »

I guess I had a whole different set of expectations for the show last year.

I turned it on 2 or 3 times but always wound up flipping to something else when they went into reality show mode. I guess shooting doesn't cut it as a spectator sport on it's own.

Neither does Golf but for some odd reason, a lot of people want to watch it. :-)

I thought I saw that there was going to be an episode just about who the competitors are going to be this season coming on before the actual season starts but I couldn't find it. I just saw a brief moment about the show and could be wrong though. Anybody know anything about such a thing? Scott

There was a couple of minutes intro last night after Axmen. I set my alarm to turn on the TV 2 minutes before it was supposed to air and fell asleep waiting for Brian to be introduced.

It is easier to just go to the history channel web site and read the bios.

I watched last season on "on demand" the next day so that I could fast forward through the reality show bs segments.

I just hope that at least Brian Zins shoots the elimination target the way a pistol should be shot. With ONE hand! After all they are called hand guns not hands guns. Scott

The history channel website also airs the full episode over the internet, but they aren't posted until the following day at some point. I don't get the histroy channel, so I watch each Tuesday's episodes the following Wednesday night on www.history.com.
