    From Funny Cars to Trap Shooting to Barrel Work: Robert Hight Trap Talk E155

    Trap Talk Episode 155, Zach Nannini and Richard Marshall Jr. sit down with Robert Hight — NHRA superstar, Funny Car champion, and now a passionate trap shooter — for a deep dive into the craft of shooting and what he’s learned after stepping away from the drag strip. Robert opens up about the pressure of racing at 330+ mph and how that intensity compares to the focus required in trap shooting. From there, the conversation settles into what our sport is built on: consistency, craftsmanship, and community. He breaks down the science behind barrel work, how he came to acquire Wilkinson Barrel Works, why quality shotgun shells matter more than most shooters realize, and what really goes into choke selection when you're chasing performance at different elevations. Robert also shares why he fell in love with trap shooting, how the shooting community has welcomed him, and what he hopes to build next.

Then, Red Bud Mayor Susan L. Harbaugh joins us to talk about what the Grand American means to her town, Sparta, and the entire Southern Illinois community.
