I gotta admit, it's getting on my nerves the way they keep calling the Venezuelan woman "quite a little sniper", or saying they are amazed at how well she performs.

She's a damn Olympic shooter! She competes against the best on the planet! Show a little respect, guys.

I'm a week behind because I can only catch it online. I just saw the shotgun episode. By the time I've seen it everyone else is already done discussing it. :(

Some of those people need some serious work on their shotgun skills.

To help MikeD feel in the loop... the photography in the shotgun episode was fantastic, wasn't it?

Yes it is, and it's one of the things I really like about the show.

Any one else see the show !?

Looks like they have the full episode up online now so I'll be watching it this morning. I check back in after I've seen it.
 
OK, i watched it.

I would have thought that they would have used PSE's TAC 15 crossbow. I actually had never heard of the one that they used.

BigFatGuy said:
The best line came at the end: a 31 year old man just gave a 36 year old man a friendship bracelet!

That and the "I thought you guys were getting married" comment as they walked off the field. LOL

Colin just had a WTF? look during the whole exchange. LOL

Is it just me or did neither of these guys have very good recoil control and were readjusting their grip at almost every shot?

Colby's comment about hoping the next challenge didn't involve a 1911 evoked a bit of a chuckle out of me as well. I thought the guy had missed the target completly.
 
I record em and watch em on the weekends so thats when I'll chime in with my 2pesos....

I did catch the friendship part though. Meh.....I would have just taken it out of his hands and tied it on my belt....it's dirty and most likely...stinky!

Two marksmen slug it out in the elimination challenge, using one of the most durable pistols on the planet.

to another over a 20-foot gap, then fire one shot at a set of 5 glass jugs from
30 feet with one hand and swing back. One shooter per jug; the next shooter
