  • draht_1
    Pilla show
    Justin, as always awesome show. I really love the episodes with Dennis and Phil talking Pilla lenses. It is the perfect balance of geeky science and real life feedback. There is no one better to deal with then Dennis! I look fwd to this episode! The only bad part is I need to order a new lense!
  • Flounderchamp11
    Greatest podcast ever!!!
    Since I started listening to Shotgun Sports podcasts I’ve lost 4 lbs, punched from D to A class, located the Fountain of Youth, had to start taking vitamins to keep up with my wife’s suddenly constant sexual advances, gotten 3 more mpg in my truck, found cases upon cases of AA ammo for $50, have W209 primers showing up at my house free of charge from secret admirers and have to duck constant calls from Anthony, Joe and other pros looking for shooting advice. Amazing!

    A Must Listen for any Clay Shooter!
    I got back into shooting sporting clays about a year ago after a 15+ year hiatus. I started looking around for sporting clays podcasts and Shotgun Sports USA was the first one that came up. Started from Episode 1 and had them playing one after the other. Before I knew it, I had listened to all the episodes and had started back on episode 1 for Round 2! The variety of guests is amazing and it takes you into the minds of folks from all around the industry. Getting each individual take from top shooters, target setters, gun manufacturers, product manufacturers, club owners, etc. really gives the listener a deep understanding of the sport as a whole. Endless amount of tips and pointers I've heard on this show have improved my game drastically. There are no instructors in my small local club and Shotgun Sports USA has stepped in and filled the instructional void with all of the wisdom from their guests. Love the show and encourage everyone to give it a listen!

    Great podcast to travel with.
    Whether I am traveling or sitting the office, when a new podcast pops up I sit down for an hour and pay attention. It’s wonderful to be able to gain an insight to the sport I enjoy so much. I appreciate you asking the questions on subjects and different aspects of the sport I want to learn about. In your visits with your guests there is an atmosphere of cooperation not contention. I feel your guests opening up about subjects that Shooters would never be able to ask. It’s great and please keep up the good work. Mike Anderson Idaho Sporting Clays Association

    This is a must for any Sporting Clays shooter!
    I have been listening to Justin Barker’s Sporting Clays oriented podcasts since the beginning. I started with the “Behind the Break” podcast. It was a lot of fun listening to the guys banter back and forth. This new version is perhaps a more focused continuation of BTB. The spectrum of people who organize, compete and vend in our sport is on full display for us all to enjoy. I really look forward to each new weekly podcast. I always learn new things and get to know more about the people, personalities and products involved in our sport! Keep up the good work Justin Barker!

Justin interviews pros to target setters to gun and ammo manufacturers and covers every clay target topic in between making it the most informational and entertaining shotgun sports podcast hands down! I always look forward to every new episode!
