Olympic Shooting - Where to view/get results?
« on: August 08, 2008, 09:01:03 AM »
What is a good resource to view the Olympic shooting results and/or watch some of it online?

Lord knows NBC won't be highlighting any of this with their 22 hrs-a-day coverage.  I'd say it was 24-hrs a day, but they have to reserve 2 hours for BHO.

Thanks in advance!

It looks like the pickins are slim, though you can watch some online. This link will take you to NBC's TV & Online links for shooting sports.

Just click on the day and time you looking for. Tonight is Women's air rifle and men's pistol at 10:30p ET.

For what it's worth, my wife said some of the less popular sports would be on youtube.

m25operator, am I the only one who finds your otherwise hilarious avatar to be a gun handling no-no? Seems like the guy sweeps his hands before his final pose and ends up pointing the muzzle at his chest or shoulder. This of course ignores the fact he just shot an apparently unarmed guy. Perhaps I'm being overly critical. Fine video nonetheless.  ;D

The character also sweeps whoever he gave the thumbs up to!  A good one for the range officers to pick how many procedurals are violated. It does demonstrate proper shooting until your target is on the ground.

Here's the NBC Olympic Shooting Sports page.

Surprisingly,it actually has quite a bit of info on the athletes and events. Even has some videos.


Marshall, Since there's not much MSM coverage of the Shooting Events,
Would it be possible to get the Shooting Sports page stickied so it's easily accessible to DRTV visitors?

Thanks in advance!

Click on the Downrange TV Home page, Michael Bane is running headline commentary and analysis.

I archived this link which also seems to work well for just bare bones details and facts:
