figgy Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Just watched Ed Ling win Bronze and noticed silver Duct tape on his gun covering the Perazxi logo and name on the action. What's that all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iano Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Saw that as well - thought it was maybe an alcohol sponsor or something? Cracking match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenlivet Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Just watched this, no birds played a part mentally I'd guess. Interesting the Czech missed the last two when he knew he'd lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGHTCHOKE Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) It was live on BBC4 great to see another Medal being taken. Loved the slow motion shots where you could see the shot flying. Edited August 8, 2016 by TIGHTCHOKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokersmith Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Was watching this on the iPlayer then turned round to see it on BBC1 live ! Crowd shouting, no birds ..... definitely a mental game at that level ... targets looked sharp too!! A great result and fantastic for the sport to keep getting medal success.

walt1980 Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Cartridge sponsors name maybe under the tape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buze Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Olympic things is just a big money mafia, so his sponsor is likely not on the 'approved' olympic list, and he'd get disqualified if he was to display any of that. Because 'sports' you know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buze Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Well do be fair, these guys had to go thru full body waxing; that probably deserves a medal by itself ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElvisThePelvis Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Well do be fair, these guys had to go thru full body waxing; that probably deserves a medal by itself ;-) I think it's a lifestyle choice, like the leather chaps and handlebar moustache Final available on iPlayer. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p04250mc/olympic-shooting-final-mens-trap-finals#group=p04375l6 Brilliant, thanks!

Vince Green Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Tom daly and Dan Goodfellow have just won bronze in the syncronized diving Ed Ling wins bronze in shooting, Now who is going to get the headlines tomorrow? Just saying So far the only mention has been on the rolling news on the bottom of the screen but diving, gymnastics (who didn't get a medal) and the rugby sevens have been wall to wall.
