The Ultimate Sporting Clays Podcast
The Shotgun Sports USA Podcast is all about sharing the stories, insights, and personalities from the world of shotgun sports with shooters everywhere. Whether you’re just starting out and looking to hit your first 50 straight, a competitive NSCA shooter aiming for Master Class, a FITASC competitor, or someone who simply loves hunting with friends, we’re here to help you improve your shooting while celebrating the people who make these sports special.
Since its debut in 2020, Shotgun Sports USA has become a go-to podcast in the clay target community. We host conversations with World Champions, National Champions, Olympic athletes, instructors, target setters, club owners, manufacturers, and innovators from across the shooting sports world. Episodes cover everything from sporting clays and FITASC to trap, skeet, hunting, equipment, competition, and the people behind the sport.
All-Around Performance Rankings
The Shotgun Sports USA All-Around Performance Rankings are built to identify the shooters delivering the strongest and most consistent performances across America’s major shooting events. Rankings use actual tournament results from Sporting Clays, FITASC, Super Sporting, and 5-Stand and measure performance against the winning score, course difficulty, field average, and strength of the field — not simply raw scores.
To qualify for the Overall Ranking, a shooter must compete in all four disciplines at every qualifying tournament included in the Performance Index. Once qualified, every result is combined to calculate the shooter’s overall performance.
Overall rankings track Average Percentage, HOA finishes, Podiums, Top 10 finishes, and Average TPI. Tournament winnings are also accumulated across all four disciplines. After each qualifying event, new results are uploaded into the Shotgun Sports USA Performance Index and the rankings are recalculated.
Open the SSUSA Performance App to view every ranked shooter, search by name, and see each shooter’s true rank.

Gear, ammunition, optics, and current events are part of the conversation, but the heart of Shotgun Sports USA has always been the people behind the sport. Every episode goes beyond the equipment to explore competition, preparation, technique, experiences, and the personalities that make shooting sports unique.
