Brady and I talk about our struggles on day one and what we think makes these matches hard. NRL Hunter matches offer a completely different set of challenges that are super fun to handle when you are used to shooting standard PRS matches, but they can be discouraging if you not familiar with their format. We chat about that and how things went.

Brady and I talk about what I consider to be one of the hardest fundamentals to put into practice. It is a discussion that I feel has not been given enough face time in the precision rifle community and one that I hope to draw some attention to. In this episode we dive into what makes it difficult, why I think it can never be mastered and is therefore inherently perishable, and we discuss some of the ways that we have tried to improve our implementation of this fundamental.

Ben Gossett has been one of the best shooters in the PRS for the last several years and in December he won the 2022 AG Cup in phenomenal fashion. When the largest purse in our sport, $30,000 dollars, was on the line he not only won, but he didn't miss a shot the entire day. It was a pretty epic feat that will live on in infamy for many years as one of the most clutch moments in our sport.

Brady and I discuss various topics and hit a couple good topics that I think y'all will be interested in. Zero issues and shifts will drive a guy crazy if you don't know what things can and do effect it. I see a lot of guys changing their zero when their gun may actually be zeroed, but other things are making it appear to be off. We talk about things that we watch for and when we will or won't change our zero. We also discuss the price tag of high-end setups and if they are worth it. We answer t...

This episode I talk about a topic that has been on my mind for quite a while; unconscious competence and processing capacity. This is a pretty cerebral topic, but I feel like it is one that explains a lot of issues shooters have and sheds light on where we should focus our efforts in practice in order to improve. Thanks for listening!

Brady Allinson and I talk about what the main stressor categories are. We also add one, that is usually not talked about by shooters and match directors, to the list: target acquisition. Target acquisition, in my opinion is one of the most overlooked skills to develop in this game. I believe increasing your efficiency in finding targets is one of the only ways you can see immediate results in your match performances. I hope you enjoy the episode!
