justaute Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Congrats to the USA for taking silver -- it barely lost to Italy, after upsetting the heavy favorite in Korea in the semi. p.s. unlike World Shoot, and many other shooting events, no one tried cheating.

firemantj Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 That was a great match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not-So-Mad Matt Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I have to say, team archery is surprisingly fun to watch -- unlike the precision airgun events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Clutch shot by the Italian at the end. Needed a 10 for Gold or they'd go to a shoot off, and if he has shot an 8, they would have lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikegot38 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I was on the archery team in college. Sorry I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHARP2 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I was at an archery shop yesterday buying my first bow in a really long time, and it was all that they were talking about. I wish NBC had better coverage or move information as to when certain events would be on. For instance... I watched womens basketball yesterday, I think Turkey vs. Angola rather than the USA archery match. It would seem to me that NBC would have coverage of all USA events.

justaute Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 nbcolympics.com has listing of event schedules. You search by either time or sport.

SmittyFL Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I know everyone is busting on NBC's coverage but their website is really good. You can watch any event you want in real time or after the fact. It is very well done, I watched all the shotgun, some Judo.....it's good to watch all the weird stuff that doesn't make tv but you can watch the mainstream sports also if you missed them live. On the archery, I love the fact that the American mens team looked like a bunch of young redneck country boys straight off the bow stand. Curled baseball caps, goatees, and I'll bet a can of skoal in their back pockets! Badass.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Koreans looked like they just got done playing as archers in World of Warcraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
