TOP SHOT ON TONIGHT on the History Channel at 10 eastern time & 9 central
I was very glad to see the self taught guy win last season!

Dang! Tuesday nights are getting too many shows that I like! I will have to record it at 2:00 AM so I can watch the next day.
Thanks for the heads up!

I stopped watching TOPSHOT after the 2nd season, when it became obvious it was not a shooting contest but a popularity contest!

Although I have some issues with the editing... the overall premise is good... as they say, "on any given Sunday."

I agree. The show sounded good in theory, but it was too much drama and socializing for me.

Was pure shooting in the season premiere. I think they might have got the message - or at least the contestants did. Was happy to see the mouthy kid eliminated immediately!

The two "world champs" were sent packing...

I am amazed at how poorly the top shots shoot. Makes me think that some of the fellas here should gather around a camp fire and have our own version .. I know many of you compete in local and regional and even national events. Bet we could shoot a Ruger SA better than most of them did last night, as well as the M1A

I was thinking the same thing. I imagne part of this is simple nerves. Many people haven't competed in the shooting sports (I'm one), and the thought of doing it, with cameras rolling, has got to be a little nerve-wracking, which easily takes its toll in a sport of precision. You'd think the combat vets in the group wouldn't be phased at all though on this point. After all, none of the targets are shooting back!

Another part, IMHO, is that many folks who enjoy shooting do so with a very limited number of weapons. I'll admit, I am not equally good on every weapon I pick up. But I have more than a passing familiarity with almost all of them. It amazes me the nationally-ranked guys who are handed a weapon and then start making excuses because they have "never fired one of these before"...

I just hope they don't have a super jerk like they did most of last season. He pulled lots of silly stuff off the range.

Drama queens with guns. Pass.

I fast forward threw the non shooting parts.
