Memorizing the targets is harder than it looks.

I thought tonights showdown was one of the best episodes as far as the first challenge...
The M2a1 Half Track with a Browning M1919 mounted on top was awesome...and of all the things that Top Shot put the contestants through, including the rappeling tower...I would have liked to have done that the most... |
