Top Shot
Season One
Week One
Craig sights for Mike Seeklander before the Elimination Challenge.
Craig was the expert of the first Practice Session, using the M14, M1903 Springfield, Mosin-Nagant, and SVT-40. During this, Craig observed that the Red Team had more fun during the Practice Session than the Blue Team, who were more serious. Being the expert, Craig was allowed to watch the first Team Challenge in person, noticing how the Red Team had lost by a landslide due to Mike Seeklander.
After Red Team had nominated two people to compete during the Elimination Challenge, Mike Seeklander and Kelly Bachand, those two, had went to another Practice Session under Craig, this time using the Remington 700. Here, he spotted for both the contestants, noticing that both of them had done well, and that it would be hard to predict the outcome of the Elimination Challenge. Craig later witnessed the Elimination Challenge, watching as Mike lost the challenge and Kelly remained victorious.
Week Four
Craig guiding the Blue Team during the fourth Practice Session.
Unlike most of the experts on Top Shot, Craig returned to help the remaining 13 contestants of Season One with using the AR-15. To prepare the contestants for the Team Challenge, he also assigned each a color to shoot as a foe target, rather than a friend target. Craig later witnessed the Team Challenge, which had satisfactory results to the Red Team, who managed to win by four points.
After the Blue Team headed to the Nomination Range and nominated two contestants to compete in the Elimination Challenge, those two contestants, James "Jim" Sinclair and Iain Harrison, came by for a Practice Session using the TZ-99 pistol shooting at a moving pendulum-shaped target. Craig noticed after the session that of the two, Jim was the slower one, but was more methodical and accurate, while Iain was very quick, yet still accurate, but had the possibility of shooting too quickly and messing up. Later, Craig witnessed the fourth Elimination Challenge go underway, with Iain becoming victorious, and Jim being eliminated.
