I'm occasionally asked if the Top Shot experience did anything for me, besides the ability to buy a bit more ammo. Well, today's thrilling installment of my Season 2 review is brought to you from sunny downtown Prescott, Ariz., rather than my usual watering hole in Oregon, as this week I'm attending an industry shoot at Gunsite with the likes of Bryce Towsley and Ed Head. So yeah, there's been an entire career change in the course of a few months and to be honest, my head's still spinning. I hope that the Season 2 competitors manage to turn their appearance on the show to their advantage as like their predecessors, they're all pretty much just regular guys with a passion for the shooting sports.

As with every other human endeavor that involves lots of highly specialized people, there’s more to this TV business than meets the eye. Literally. To get some idea of what this means, imagine looking at the world through your favorite scope; there’s that part in the glass that is crystal clear and hi-def. Then there’s everything else – the world outside the scope that’s happening around what you perceive to be the universe, but is just as real, just as valid. The director’s job is to move that scope around and capture the essence of what’s happening in the bigger picture – get it right and the image onscreen becomes a microcosm of actual events. Get it wrong and you miss out on vital information, or give entirely the wrong impression.

As we'll attempt to do every week, Reality Shots caught up with Top Shot contestant Athena Lee to get her reaction to being the second shooter (and first woman) eliminated from the show. Before we go any further, we'd just like to commend her for going full auto on the Thompson submachine gun during the elimination challenge. Athena, you certainly went out with a bang.

Top Shot kicked this season off by having shooters compete for team selection, team challenge and show survival using three iconic American firearms. It was a great start for a show that spotlights both historic and modern firearms in a very positive light.
