Top Shot 2 has 4 CA natives!

Joe didn't do well at all the previous week. If Red Team had not won their challenge, I'd say Joe probably would have been voted for the elimination match, based on performance.

What episode was that? He seems to perform well in all the episodes I have watched and I don't think I missed any.

I was disappointed that Daryl went home this episode... No offense to you Jay, you have done exceedingly well in every elimination. BTW, how are all those Bass Pro Shops cards you racked up treating you? lol.

I think by the time this season is over, Jay is going to own BassPro

[Cokebottle]

He has the upper hand on the mental side it seems like.

Ditto.
His golf training... mind and body, he's rock solid under pressure... or is able to ignore the pressure.

Still using "Cup and Saucer", which is horrible for follow-on shots, and he's still out-shooting guys with a "proper" grip and stance.

Now that he's moved beyond "cup and saucer", he's probably an ace marksman.

Yeah, but it only really matters in high-speed shooting. Nothing that Jay has had to do (yet) really hinged on truly rapid fire engagements. Cup and saucer may be an obsolete style, but it doesn't hurt you that much for aimed fire. Jay was brilliant in refusing the advice of the experts.

As for the latest "expert" saying that he would change his shooting style right before a big competition (in response to Jay's question), he's full of it.

Congrats Jay Lin. I won't be surprised if you win this season.

Could have kept the blue team out of elimination last night.
Could have made his win in elimination more solid... that was way too close.

There have been several team competitions and eliminations where faster follow-on shots would have made a difference in the outcome (but it obviously hasn't hurt Jay in the eliminations).

Jay was brilliant in refusing the advice of the experts.

Agreed.
The experts try to get him to adjust his style every time, and every time he refuses. Last night was point-blank... "Would you change your method right before a competition?"
Last time this came up, he was a bit less candid... "Teach me to shoot quickly and accurately with what I am doing"
What he is doing is working for him.

As for the latest "expert" saying that he would change his shooting style right before a big competition (in response to Jay's question), he's full of it.

Big plus 10,000 on that one!

By sleeper you mean, "guy with talent who does not appear to have any"?

Unless you're talking about another episode, that's not right. Joe went 3 for 3 hitting the corn cob pipes and was a hero last week.

I think he's referencing the tomahawk challenge. I think Joe hit a target in the wrong strategic spot. They won anyway, but it was very close due to the bad throw.

[tenpercentfirearms]

I am so tired of Jay. Someone eliminate him already.

[Markus]

I do wonder if Jay is downplaying his abilities during the challenges and stepping up his game for the elimination? You know act weak when your strong sort of thing? TBH I feel that Jay has a good chance to win as long as he doesnt have to do a lot of transitions or anything that involves moving a whole lot.

[jtmkinsd]

I keep thinking to myself how Jay might have handled the zip-line chair they had last year in one elimination...but he keeps proving he can meet a challenge well. Keep up the carnage!

We know they are going to have some tough challenges coming up from the preview shots. Dudes falling out of the sky while shooting a handgun. Shoot clay targets from the back of a moving truck.

Jay's days are numbered.

[medicdude]

Nice shooting Jay. You took out both of my favorites. (Jermaine then Daryl)
Keep up the good work. I've gained alot of respect for you thru the season.

It would be Christmas in April if Jay eliminated George in a challenge.

My bad! Sorry for the confusion.

I got Joe confused with George, the Air Force "sniper" guy. Joe is indeed a sleeper and a GREAT shot. I mentioned that in an earlier post, when he went 3 for 3 on the corn cobs. Those were HARD shots!

In that same challenge it was George who choked, if I remember right. I was referring to him (but got their names mixed up).
