I didn't notice any rifles, perhaps I overlooked that scene.

Clay kept track of the game he killed or caught on a box he made, the majority of these kills were edited out which gave the impression he ate less than he really did. Not saying he wasn't starving but he got lucky more than was shown.

This has been evident in past seasons as well. I guess it adds to the drama, but there were contestants on previous seasons that were faring much better than what was presented.

that was my fault.
my eyes kept seeing lower limb as rifle strap and the arrow as the barrel

At first glance that would have fooled me as well, I had to blow the picture up to see what looked like a slender rifle barrel was actually and arrow.

I was glad they showed the house building in a little more detail this season.  Some of the past seasons they skipped over than, and I think it's one of the most interesting parts.

Just noticed on history.com site that every single participant choosed bow and arrows as one of the 10 items from the list.

Better location should be more food.

Not to bad of a start, impressed by some of the shooting. Should be a good show and fun to see how it all plays out. :)

I agree Pappy. Seems like several who know how to shoot a bow and not so restricted on what they can shoot.

Also some nice finds by a few of the contestants. The tin cans and the foot hold could certainly come in handy.

Sounds like they can hunt bears . This could take awhile. Hard to tell.

Haven’t seen anyone really concerned about a long term shelter yet. Might have more affect on outcome this time if contestants can actually kinda feed themselves.

I’ll be watching when I can.

+1
a good stove, with great heat irradiation and a chimney with good draft. It also reduces greatly the fire risk. Definetly a plus  :OK
