Braxton Oliver has done it! He is now the 2026 World Sporting Clays Champion! Jake Spengler co-hosts as we dive into Braxton's performance from start to finish, what he had to overcome, and what this means for him and his family. Anyone that has ever met any of the Oliver family knows that they are genuinely great people that are passionate about the sport and the people in it! Braxton is a respectful, outstanding shooter, yet humble, and thankful. As much as his competitors wanted to win, every one of them agree that it could not have been awarded to a better person!

Ryan Harper and Joe Pinchin as juniors, were on the Young Guns team from Florida, where they shared much success. Both are outstanding young men that are respectful, helpful, and courteous. However, when they are together, it is full on comedy hour! Although they both held back a little bit in this episode, they were both fun to have on the show and to find out where they are at in their lives. Joe and Ryan were both guest of the show a few years back and a lot has changed for them, so it was great to catch up, and have a few laughs!

Mention the name Dick Vance around the northern states, and you are immediately greeted with the word LEGEND! Since starting his sporting clays journey in 1984, Dick has racked up numerous accolades including All American, National Pump and Senior Vet Champ, along with countless wins. To list all his accomplishments here would take several paragraphs. None the less, Dick is a legend and it was an honor and a privilege to have him on the show!

The new Gray Rose Company, (jointly founded by Dominic Bethel and Carl Holland), is a premium shotgun dealer and, the USA importer of Manuel Ricardo Stocks. We sit down with Carl, who has now began the process of fitting shooters to stocks, under the expert tutelage of Ben Husthwaite. Ben and Carl discuss the stock fitting process, how Carl will offer his services across the USA, and what it means to have a Manuel Ricardo stock. Carl also fills us in on all of the services that the Gray Rose offers, aside from fitting and stocks. While we had him there for part of the conversation, we pick Ben's brain on his thoughts of the climate of sporting clays, and where he thinks things are headed.

Back in 2022, we had Sarah Hall, Project and events manager of The MidwayUSA Foundation, on to discuss who they are, and the amazing support they give to the youth shooting sports. If you have not heard that episode, we highly encourage you to listen to it, before listening to this episode. The numbers were mind blowing in 2022, and now they are even more staggering! Jake Spengler of Rocky Creek Sporting clays, co-hosts this episode, as Pete Eisentrager, the Executive Director, joins us to discuss where they are now, in terms of support with the youth shooting sports. We then dive into a vast array of topics surrounding the organization. How do they help? How can you help? What are some of the misconceptions about the Foundation? What is their vision? You are going to want to hear this!
