BritinUSA Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Kim Rhode; she became the first American athlete to win five medals in an individual event in five consecutive Olympic Games. She earned a gold medal in women's skeet Sunday, setting an Olympic record and tying the world record by hitting 99 out of 100 targets. She also became the first woman to win three gold medals in Olympic shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwx40x40 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I saw NBC interviewing her yesterday and they mentioned some televised coverage of shooting sports today, but did not give a time. I was just glad to see that little bit of coverage she got yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyZip Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 WATERPOLO!!! This is the sport of real men. And yes, I played in high school and club ball in my 20s. The U.S. played well today. This sport has action, and is tough to play. It will teach you your limits every time you get in the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langenator Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Just a question for the OP: does modern pentathlon fall into your hatred of equestrian events? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rr4406pak Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 It'd be great if they had steel knockdown like the ProAm in the Olympics. Really lends itself well to television and is exciting to watch. Although I know it'll never happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoShooter Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 This morning they announced that a US Lady won a medal in shooting. No mention of shooters name , event or order of finish.. the news program we watched had some good coverage on her and her Gold Medal accomplishment. keep in mind that Olympic skeet , 'I think' is the same as International skeet and the targets are faster than American skeet. 99is a good score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sport has action, and is tough to play. It will teach you your limits every time you get in the pool. I dropped about 30 lbs in a month playing waterpolo every morning before school my senior year of high school. Man, if you have any extra weight, that'll pull it off you IN A HURRY.... Hmm,,,,maybe I should play again,,,,,I'd need about 3 months like I had back in high school and then I'd call it good..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
