Thumbs up Impossible Shots. If I Didn't See It Myself

I would not have believed it.

Last Night on IMPOSSIBLE SHOTS.

Anybody see Jerry Miculek break a small yellow balloon at 200 yards shooting a box stock S&W Airweight Snubbie .38 - while holding the Snub in one hand - gun UPSIDE DOWN and pulling the trigger with his pinky finger?

Pretty doggone amazing/unbelievable shot.

If anyone could do it Jerry could. He's more then just a fast shot.

The "other" guy (with the sunglasses) popped a balloon with a NAA .22 from a long distance, I can't quite remember how far?

Some of these shots are hard to believe.

Yup, it was a crazy shot, with a snubbie no less. I think it took him what three tries...

Yep I saw that.
He and Bob Munden both are amazing.

Further proof that barrel length is not an inhibitor so much as understanding & knowing the effects of velocity and gravity as in relation to trajectory toward scoring hits.

that show is always entertaining. I was very surprised when the bow guy on there hit a water droplet with the point of the arrow.

just goes to show, if you think you are a good shot, watch this show and see how far you have to progress.

I wish I had the ammo these guy's get to practice with. I think I heard them say they got over 10,000 rounds a year to shoot.
