About Top Shot
If a $100,000 prize package and bragging rights as “Top Shot” aren’t enough to tickle a marksman’s trigger finger, consider this: One sharpshooter will also walk away from the new season of Top Shot with a contract from Bass Pro Shops. Hosted by Colby Donaldson, the hit competition series will be fully loaded with more twists and history-inspired challenges than ever before when it returns for a fourth season.
The 18 competitors vying for the Top Shot title represent the broadest range of shooting backgrounds ever featured on the series. From a 21-year-old world-champion pistol shooter to a hardworking high school custodian who makes his own ammunition and spends his spare time at the range, these marksmen and markswomen are determined to aim high. Some of the finest self-taught shooters in the country are coming out to prove themselves this season, including an IT specialist from California, a knife maker from Georgia, a chemist from Massachusetts and a grass-fed cattle farmer from upstate New York. Ranging in age from 21 to 50, these contestants were carefully chosen from among thousands of applicants to compete on Top Shot.
To claim the Top Shot crown, $100,000 prize and Bass Pros Shops professional shooting contract, the competitors will face punishing challenges based on real-life battle scenarios. They'll find themselves navigating back alleys, rappelling down buildings and hitting moving targets from a speeding World War II-style motorcycle sidecar. They'll also attempt to hit a target from 1,500 yards—the longest distance in Top Shot history.
As they push through physically grueling tests, the shooters will have to demonstrate their mastery of weapons from all eras of human history. This year’s arsenal features an M32A1 grenade launcher, a massive 1898 cannon from the Spanish-American War, a semiautomatic FS2000 bullpup rifle and a 1919 vehicle-mounted Browning machine gun. High-speed HD cameras capture the skillful execution of each trial in extreme slow motion.
