Today, we’ve got a first for the podcast—we’re joined by USPSA Grandmaster and competitive shooting coach, Joel Park.

Joel teaches pistol and rifle classes all over the country, working with everyone from beginners to elite professionals in top government agencies. He’s also co-authored several books on practical shooting and shares daily training content on his YouTube channel.

In this episode, we talk about the nuances of coaching shooters at different skill levels, what it really takes to become an expert in your field, and why Joel focuses on average performance—not just the highs and lows.

You can follow Joel on Instagram at @joel.park_ and on YouTube at @joelpark556.

As always, thanks for listening—and enjoy the episode.
