Heck yeah!!! I believe it was Ben Stoeger who mentioned this as well. USPSA needs to do this to have it grow to the next level. Thanks so much for doing this!!! Please keep doing it!!!
I’m a combat sports commentator, having called broadcasts in 13 countries over the last decade….and I have wanted to commentate shooting sports for ages. I think there’s a big appetite for better produced coverage including commentary. Enjoyed this video a ton and I thought your added audio was great.
No question; without a doubt would watch USPSA if it was on TV/streaming. There's a reason why History Channel's "Top Shot" was popular. Analysis and commentary for the sport would provide valuable insight for shooters of all levels. Also, would provide more visibility and introduce new shooters to the sport.
I love shooting and love the mind game of USPSA. However, I feel that watching people shoot is like dry toast. The only way you could hold attention for this sport would be phenomenal camera insights as they’re shooting. The stage would need to be set up with a live feed cameras on each target and from the shooters perspective. Commentator insight into stage run choices, errors and time factors like you’re discussing in this video is great. Ultimately the viewer needs to feel the pressure and perspective of the shooter for it to hold an audience.
To non shooters it's like watching paint dry. When I show videos to my friends or co-workers, they all say they can't tell whats going on... they can't see what target is being shot at, or what the hits are. They don't get it. There's a reason that "Top Shot" on the History Channel couldn't even scrape up 3 million viewers. The producers had to scramble to produce drama outside of the actual shooting portions. I do remember when shooting sports were on espn and sponsored by Jeep, Levis, Coke... then bill clinton came along...
I'm going to echo a previous commenter's mention of Top Shot as an example of shooting competitions being watchable. Add another camera or two and it could be quite fun. Would love to see a walk through of each stage by the camera with some visuals to make things a bit more clear to the viewer. Add a good intro to the structure of the competition, scoring, and standings (for those who have never entered a competition), and you might even grow the competitions along the way. Live stream and take super chats, sell merch, maybe make some money for additional prize winnings or to support the cost of doing the streams?
No. I don't even much like watching it while participating. I generally only like to watch shooting sports when you can instantly see the results. ISSF channel showing skeet, trap, and some of the other olympic-style sports where you see the target get hit. In rapid-fire pistol (olympic), they show split screen the shooter and the hit results. Same with Biathlon. In USPSA-type shooting the only ones that I've enjoyed watching are the shooter against shooter steel. Now that's exciting when the shooters are paired competitively with close results. Regular steel-only matches are fun to watch. Shoot'em up as many and as fast as you can with par times. Excitement.
In my opinion for TV/streaming you would need a real time method of showing hits/scoring. Kind of like how hockey was unwatchable until they figured out how to highlight the puck. You would need to film in such a way to show both the shooter nd the targets in frame.
this is why USPSA never grew to the size it could have been , no one really knew what it was unless you had someone to show you or were willing to read the rules and watch tones of 1:40 long footage of matches
In order for USPSA (and any other shooting competition) to have any success on TV, the hits on target would need to be visible in real time. Otherwise you see how the shooter is moving, but have no idea of how well he's actually doing. And if you don't have an idea of how well he's doing as he's going through the stage, then the whole thing is hard to watch and boring at the same time.
@@ExecutiveTrainingGroup It would definitely be quite an awesome technical accomplishment. Unfortunately I don't think a shooting sport would be watchable without it.
You can’t see live scoring in fighting sports, snowboarding, or plenty of other sports. If you were televising USPSA you’d have to be switching between stages almost constantly to avoid watching the reset. All of this would make it difficult to compare and keep track of what’s happening on the stage since you’re switching between stages so often. I do think you could have a very well done production for USPSA, but I think doing it live would be hard. This video was very well done and I think something like this with detailed breakdowns and two “in the booth” commentators and one or two “on the ground” commentators getting interviews would be awesome. Throw in a couple “features” which breakdown things like “how to shoot a swinger” or “dynamic movement explained” etc would be awesome. I agree you’d need a way to score the stages faster or instantly so you can see the results right after the shooter is done. Going back to my example of snowboarding you don’t get instant results for Olympics or Xgames or other competitions like that, but it is very quick and you get the instant reaction to the results from the competitors. Hopefully someone can make this happen.
Commentary + analysis would help viewership to understand the sport. "helmet cam" AKA PoV Camera shots mixed in would also greatly help. finally After stage short interviews or even pre-stage planning chats would be useful filler content
I love watching others shoot their stages but the I would not recommend any type of TV or Streaming Deal with the current corrupt BOD in charge of things.
I would but you'll need better angles, capturing both the targets and the shooter and, if not live, then some editing to mark the hits on the targets as the shooter goes through the stage.
What type of holster is Scott using, in what type of mount? It looks like it's accomodating his CZ S2 with Tevo thumblock, and it has a lever lock as well. I need a holster like this for my S2 w/Tevo. I asked GX if he'll make a vice for my S2 with Tevo, but was told no.
Very perceptive, and you are correct. I ran into the same challenge you are having. So I made this holster from an older holster. I removed the lock from a GX I had for a Sig, drilled new holes for the lock, and measured and cut the Kydex to allow for the thumb rest. A bicycle seat lock will also work since most people don’t have extra GX holsters lying around.
I would 10000% watch USPSA on TV. Just need some network to have the balls to carry it live. I’m sure some Karen would freak out and call for boycotts of ad sponsors smh.
Yes I'd watch this but I'm into this shit. Shooting is really my only hobby and I'm going to start doing pistol competitions myself. Speaking of that, are Glocks competitive in any of the optics divisions? that's what I wanna use.
I am not a fan of the bod either. That being said I think the more people that join the shooting sports the better as I care more about people being good with their weapons. I also think it is possible that the more people who get in volved the harder it will be for the bod to get away with what they do, but I could be wrong on that to be honest.

Yeah without commentators, a ton of cameras, and an onsite editing crew, it's a non-starter.
Very cool and thanks for the compliments!
I would absolutely love to watch stuff like this. Especially for majors.
I've always wondered why this wasn't a thing.
YES. I was just having this conversation with someone. I would definitely watch online if they posted it
Wow this is great! Would love to have this ok TV/stream
He’ll yeah. Great idea.
This is awesome. I’m subscribing just because of this. Always wanted to watch it with commentary
Same.
Love watching others shoot. Just started shooting USPSA back in June. Only have done 2 matches so far but loving it.
Great job. I absolutely would watch. Good commentary and information.
Nice work. I’m gonna save this to show the folks who can’t seem to grasp what it is I do. I know it’s a ton of work, but I’d love to see more.
This is great. I appreciate being able to learn from the footwork and que in on their lines of choice.
As someone that has never shot a match I appreciate this video I’m signed up for couple upcoming matches
Love this. Would definitely watch on tv
If they had secondary cameras that showed the targets in a PiP, then yeah, I would watch this all day.
Thank you for the compliments! Always good to see you again, loved the format and keep up the good work. Hope to see you at the next one!
Love this format! Do more! Will def watch!
One of these days I’m gonna make it out there to Hammer Down. Nice job, dude!
Great video! We need you for all of our locals!

Of course I would. This is awesome!
Awesome video! Definitely something I’d watch😂 I would like to point out that Matt knight guy is my favorite👀😂
Absolutely
Yes would watch if on TV

I absolutely love this. Amazing job!!!!!!!! Love the format. Hope you continue w this type of content.
This is a dope format!
Enjoyed your video. More please
Please continue to make videos of matches like this, Excellent!
I would 100% watch this; great format & commentary
I would definitely watch this!!
This is seriously cool. I love the commentary. I could probably listen to this on the radio haha.
Absolutely! I’d watch that subscribe and watch each episode.
100 PERCENT would!!!
Would love to see this picked up for TV great job on the video
Love this format.
Yes I would
Someone needs to invent targets that can live score...like a sticker overlay that a sensor plugs into and can send a score to a scoreboard
Been wanting to shoot competition pistol. Found this entertaining and informative.
I subscribed hoping you will post more of this content.
Vwry informative video

This is so cool.
Thanks dude
If I could I would.
Absolutely!
This is the best video I have seen in so long. Love it
this is why USPSA never grew to the size it could have been , no one really knew what it was unless you had someone to show you or were willing to read the rules and watch tones of 1:40 long footage of matches
Dude, this is awesome! Nice work!
Yes broo i lobe this entire video is so cool 😎
this is really cool
Great coverage!
Yes
No. I would go in person.
Great commentary, love it! subscribed
TH-cam is my TV, lol.

I agrre a real time display if hits would be awesome.

New subscriber here.. like this format to watch USPSA.
Can you get a camera on the targets as the shots drop? It would be more immersive
Make me a star!!!
Hell Yeah i would
Fuck yes I would.
Commentary + analysis would help viewership to understand the sport. "helmet cam" AKA PoV Camera shots mixed in would also greatly help. finally After stage short interviews or even pre-stage planning chats would be useful filler content
Yeah this needs to be a thing.
Wow, great job!!
This is awesome!
Subbed, nice channel man, keep going!
Keep doing this!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Like this do it more
I love USPSA. This is the type of stuff I watch though. This is a clickbait question though. Most people would not watch USPSA on TV.
I love watching others shoot their stages but the I would not recommend any type of TV or Streaming Deal with the current corrupt BOD in charge of things.
Yes.
Would watch majors. Not very interested in watching lower performing shooters 🤷♂️
I don't watch standard television outside of UFC, and even my friends and I use the website.
I would but you'll need better angles, capturing both the targets and the shooter and, if not live, then some editing to mark the hits on the targets as the shooter goes through the stage.
I totallty agree but not bad for one dude shooting a match and also shooting a match right? haha
@@ExecutiveTrainingGroup I agree, it's very good. I wish you the best on your project.
@@ExecutiveTrainingGroup Not bad? No, this is excellent work for being done by one dude.
Yes!!!!
The scoop draw was slower. On your comparison
The commentator is being super nice with these folks.
Damn right I would watch it. Be there at Hammer Down myself Class A carry optics in 2 days.
What materials are on the side walls that allows shooters to shoot into them?....seems like a great indoor range
hell yeah
Yep!
I would watch this all the time
What type of holster is Scott using, in what type of mount? It looks like it's accomodating his CZ S2 with Tevo thumblock, and it has a lever lock as well. I need a holster like this for my S2 w/Tevo. I asked GX if he'll make a vice for my S2 with Tevo, but was told no.

yes
Totally would jeek out on this if it was on TV
Never seen shooters place their draw hand on the holster at stand by? Thought that would be against the rules 🤷🏻♂️
Most of the time, the start position says “wrists below belt” so as long your wrists are below the belt then you can do as you please.
Hell ya I would watch it
I would 10000% watch USPSA on TV. Just need some network to have the balls to carry it live. I’m sure some Karen would freak out and call for boycotts of ad sponsors smh.
Hell yea and it do good on tv guarantee u it would
Yes I'd watch this but I'm into this shit. Shooting is really my only hobby and I'm going to start doing pistol competitions myself. Speaking of that, are Glocks competitive in any of the optics divisions? that's what I wanna use.
Yes I shoot glock and though many will say the gun really really matters it doesn’t. What you get used to is important.
and you are the champ :) congrats. I'm using a glock for carry optics as well :) @@ExecutiveTrainingGroup
This is the way
I wouldn’t watch bc the current USPSA Board needs to go. Then we can talk about getting more people into the sport.
I am not a fan of the bod either. That being said I think the more people that join the shooting sports the better as I care more about people being good with their weapons. I also think it is possible that the more people who get in volved the harder it will be for the bod to get away with what they do, but I could be wrong on that to be honest.
more like this pls
