Tracy Wright co-hosts this episode as we welcome Scott Manspeaker of Atlas traps to give us the updates and news from Atlas Traps. Atlas was included in the National Sporting Clays Championship this year as the trap provider for the 5 stand and sub gauge events.  Atlas has been a supporter of the Dead Pair Podcast since our first year full year, and it was only fitting to get them back on the show for another great episode with them, and to give us some insight as to what it took to provide 2 great courses at the Nationals!

The NSSF, National Shooting Sports Foundation, has created programs that not only encourage safe firearm ownership, but also encourage mentorship for introducing new people to shooting sports. The PlusONE program does just that!   As you know, we have always been advocates for taking someone new shooting, or taking that recreational shooter to a tournament. Now, the Dead Pair Podcast has partnered with the NSSF's PlusONE program to help incentivize those mentors, and reward them for taking new people out to bust some clays!  Listen in as we are joined by Justin Morrissey, Director of social media with the NSSF, and RAD Chad Roberts as we cover all the bases and bring you the 411 on this great program!

  Through all the emails that we get, some of the most entertaining, as well as humbling emails, have came from the Australians. This year, a group of them came to the United States to travel and visit as many venues as possible, and shoot as many targets as they could, before ending up at the National Championship! The numbers of clubs and targets are staggering!  We caught up with Jason Solomons in San Antonio, and it was clear that we had to get a podcast recorded with this group!   Through the many challenges that they face in their country for shooting, they stay persistent to the game, and strive to help grow the sport both abroad and at home!
