Craig Sawyer is the expert with most appearances in Top Shot
In Top Shot , an expert is a trained marksman that is proficient with a certain weapon, skill, and/or technique. In most episodes, one or more experts are brought to lead a Practice Session where they train and coach the contestants in the use of a certain weapon, preparing them for a challenge. Experts usually wear black shirts, as opposed to the colored shirts worn by the contestants.
Several past contestants have been brought back to the show to serve as experts. Top Shot winners Iain Harrison and Chris Reed have been brought several times, as well as finalist George Reinas . Kelly Bachand was also teamed up with Reinas as an expert during one episode.
