Now, some 20 years later, John is co-host of the show that is anchored by his father, Jim Scoutten, now as it was then. John interviews and participates alongside the best competitive shooters in the nation. He shows the challenges they face, as well as their thought processes. The idea is also to show the audience that you don’t have to be an expert marksman to enjoy and compete in shooting sports.
