The final video from the Jack Link’s Cup 2026 is here 🇺🇸

For this one we’re shooting the Winchester Cup, a fun side event at Quail Creek Sporting Ranch with a great squad — John, Mike, Matt and Clay.

This was a really enjoyable course to finish the series on, with a good mix of fun targets and a few more challenging stands to keep everyone honest. There’s full round coverage in this video, capturing the squad, the targets and the atmosphere from one last shoot at Jack Link’s.
It’s a bit sad to be putting out the final video from the trip, but what an event it’s been. Hopefully we’ll be back again next year.

A big thank you to Eaton Hall Shooting. Ground for sponsoring the ammunition for this video and the Florida 2026 series.

Thanks to everyone who has followed along with the Jack Link’s Cup videos — it’s been a brilliant trip and a fantastic event to share on the channel.

Let me know in the comments:

The Zoli Expedition EL is the ideal fantastic match between prettiness and functionality. Zoli has often focus in functionality first, patterning, reliability, and longevity.
I have been a fan of Zoli for a long time due to their consistency of not cutting corners in order to make it more price accessible.
Like all other Zoli’s, this gun also has a competition level trigger and lock up systems that ensures this will be a gun to pass to generations to come.

The new Perazzi MR57 is finally out and I’m very happy that I was able to actually shoot this gun as it first landed in the US.
I was impressed at how well the gun handled with some significant changes made to the receiver, stock and forend. I am happy to inform that Perazzi has done a fantastic job at the distribution of weight throughout the entire gun to improve its handling, recoil and shooting.

Read the full article to learn more about how clay pigeon shooting can prepare you for hunting:
https://claytargetinstruction.com/blog/is-clay-pigeon-shooting-a-good-step-toward-becoming-a-hunter/

Is Clay Pigeon Shooting a Good Step Toward Becoming a Hunter?

Without question, clay pigeon shooting is an excellent step toward becoming a proficient hunter. To ethically hunt live animals and birds, you need a certain level of shooting skill, which you can develop by practicing on artificial targets. Attending a shooting school can help you refine your technique before heading into the field.

While some hunters in the past developed their skills without ever shooting a clay target, today's limited hunting opportunities make clay shooting an essential practice tool. Sporting clays and skeet were designed to mimic hunting scenarios, with targets that replicate flushing pheasants, crossing doves, and running rabbits.

Both sporting clays and skeet have evolved into formal sports with competitions, but you don’t need to compete to benefit from the practice. They remain excellent training grounds for hunters aiming to improve their skills.

https://claytargetinstruction.com/blog/how-much-does-it-cost-to-shoot-clay-targets/

How Much Does It Cost to Shoot Clay Targets?

Clay target shooting costs can vary widely based on your budget and level of commitment. While it’s not a cheap sport, you can manage expenses according to your means. Purchasing a gun and cartridges is relative to your budget, and you can practice affordably with a manual clay target thrower, costing around $100, and a box of 90 clay targets for less than $15.

Shooting at established grounds is more expensive, with U.S. clubs charging 40 to 60 cents per target and UK clubs charging 35p to 50p per target. Many clubs offer discounted rates for members, making regular shooting more affordable.

Enjoy the sport within your budget, and make the most of the opportunities it offers.

Read the full article to learn more about scoring in clay target shooting:
https://claytargetinstruction.com/blog/how-to-score-clay-target-shooting/

How to Score Clay Target Shooting?

In formal clay target shooting, targets are presented either as pairs or singles. In a true pair, two targets are launched simultaneously, while in a report pair, the second target is thrown when the gun fires at the first target. To score a target as "dead," a visible piece must break off from it. Dust puffs and plastic wads do not count as hits.

Scoring is essential in competitions, whether informal with friends or in registered events. Larger competitions have official scorers at every stand to record hits and misses. The score sheet is final, and the shooter with the most hits wins the competition. When practicing on your own, scoring is optional and less critical.

https://claytargetinstruction.com/blog/how-to-shoot-sporting-clays/

How to Shoot Sporting Clays?

Sporting clays was originally designed to mimic the flight of live game birds, helping hunters improve their shooting skills. Today, it's a popular sport enjoyed by men and women of all ages worldwide. The game involves shooting at clay targets thrown at varying angles and distances, from five to 70 yards.

To get started, find your local range and take a lesson from a qualified instructor. You can find instructors and ranges through the governing bodies for registered competition. In the US, visit the National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA), and in the UK, check out the Clay Pigeon Shooting Association (CPSA). Both organizations offer directories for instruction and places to shoot, as well as information on upcoming competitions ranging from local events to world championships.

You don't have to compete right away, or ever, to enjoy sporting clays. Many people simply enjoy it as a favorite pastime with family and friends. It's a great sport for everyone.

Shotgun Passion with Travis Mears May 5, 2026 10:50 pm

Trying to decide between a semi-auto and an over/under shotgun? This is one of the most common questions in shooting sports, and today we break it down. In this video, we compare semi-auto vs over/under shotguns on the sporting clays range, covering the Pros and Cons that actually matter. You’ll see the difference in felt recoil between a gas-operated semi-auto and an over/under, with real-time shooter feedback so you can judge for yourself.

We also dive into:
- Recoil comparison (gas system vs inertia)
- Reliability and maintenance
- Weight and handling
- Two barrels vs one barrel – does it really matter?

If you’re shopping for your next shotgun, no matter if it’s for Sporting clays, Trap, Skeet, or Upland Hunting... This breakdown will help you make the right choice.

Semi-Auto or Over/Under… which is right for you? Let’s get into it.

Blaser F3 vs FBX

Target Focused Life June 12, 2026 5:59 pm

In 2025, Blaser dropped the FBX, and the biggest question has been: how is it different from the tried-and-true F3? We sat down with Nick from Woolley Shooting to break down every change, from the redesigned ergonomics and fat body receiver to the new barrel geometry and weight distribution. If you're trying to figure out the difference between the FBX and F3, this is the deep dive you need.

How is this so CHEAP!

Target Focused Life May 30, 2026 2:00 pm

Most extremely cheap semi-auto shotguns are trash. We've said it for years, so when the Redfield Vector showed up, our expectations were sitting on the floor. We ran this 12-gauge inertia gun hard, dove hunting down in Texas, and then back home on the range for a full review, to find out whether Academy's budget hunting shotgun actually holds up. Here's our honest take on the Redfield Vector.

Being Scull

MrBritish July 17, 2024 5:25 pm

We're talking to range owners Joe Scull and Joe Pancoast, from Cedar Creek Sporting Clays!

Over the last 30 years, Joe Scull has focused relentlessly on building an outstanding local club, a true home for competition shooters. In January 2024 Joe sold the club and handed the keys to first time range owner Joe Pancoast! For the first six months of the year, they worked side by side in a transition period - which has just ended.

In this video we’re sitting down with owners old and new, we’re asking how things have gone over the last six months… and what the future has in store.

Timeline:

00:00 - Opener
01:44 - Scull takes us back 30 years
08:49 - Pancoast brings us up to speed
13:13 - Improvements at the club (womens touch)
14:05 - Handed this great opportunity
16:00 - Learning how to set targets
19:00 - Pancoast and family
23:00 - Scull - Moving on
26:35 - Relentless - Making it work
27:17 - Be a mentor - Gary - Life long friend
28:55 - Gary - the final word

The final episode in the Iain Parker series! This time we focus primarily on the CPSA and NSCA Classification systems. CPSA Averages or NSCA Punches/CCFR, you decide!

The extended interview took place during World Sporting 2024. The series discusses the UK's and the US's Clay Target Governing Bodies, the CPSA and the NSCA. Comparisons are drawn, differences are highlighted! The CPSA does some things incredibly well, and lessons can be learned here in the US (and vice versa). Over the course of the series we'll get into Funding, Mandate, Clubs, Target setting, Tournaments, Referee Accreditation... and, their respective Classification systems!

The content is split into multiple parts and each week we'll focus on two specific segments in a 16-20 minute video.

We hope you enjoy this content!

Timeline:

00:00 - Opener
00:34 - The NSCA and the CPSA shooter classification system
01:12 - The NSCA Classification System
01:50 - The CPSA Classification System
03:26 - Keeping the game fair / get a coach
04:55 - They're not shooting quality targets
05:12 - Getting a sense of how the classifications compare.
07:35 - Reclassification four times per year
08:52 - Prestige of being in AA or M aster class
09:45 - I've earned that AAA or Master classification
