    269 Joe Fanizzi: High-Level Shooting With a Full-Time Job

    Send us Fan Mail Joe Fanizzi joins Jason to talk about what it really takes to stay competitive when shooting has to fit around a full-time work schedule. Joe shares how his approach to practice, preparation, focus, and tournament expectations has changed as life has gotten busier. The conversation gets into making limited range time count, staying sharp without overtraining, and finding the right balance between work, life, and the desire to still perform at a high level. If you’re trying to improve your game without having unlimited time to shoot, this one will hit home. Sean Alley was able to join us to wrap up the show and catch up on current events! Joe's Email - fanizzishootinginstruction@gmail.com.  Dead Pair Swag- https://x062jy-1z.myshopify.com.

    268 Jonah Finley: The Training Method That Requires NO Ammo!

    Send us Fan Mail    What if you could become a better sporting clays shooter without firing a single shot?  That’s exactly what Jonah Finley has been working on.      In this episode of The Dead Pair Podcast, we sit down with one of the sport’s most interesting young shooters to talk about an unconventional training system he developed to improve gun movement, body mechanics and visual focus—using an oscillating laser instead of live ammunition.        And this isn’t just an interesting idea. Jonah has put the method to the test in competition, with impressive results at major events. Jonah shares how he discovered sporting clays, his journey from Louisiana to competitive shooting, how his training system works, why removing the live-fire element may actually help develop better mechanics, and how he prepares mentally and physically for major tournaments. Jason Rambo and Jake Spengler break down the upcoming Dead Pair Blast at Rocky Creek Sporting Clays and announce the first-ever Dead Pair Pro-Am—a unique event where shooters will have the opportunity to shoot alongside a professional while helping raise money for youth shooting programs through the MidwayUSA Foundation. If you’re looking for a different way to train, improve your shooting and think about the mental side of sporting clays, you don’t want to miss this episode.

    Send us Fan Mail  One of the biggest reasons we choose to work with the sponsors that we have at The Dead Pair Podcast, is customer service. Recently, we received an email from a customer of OtoPro, whereas the customer questioned some of the fees and was not happy. This sparked a quick phone call to Dr. Grace Sturdivant to get down to the bottom of the issue. Listen in as we cover this issue and the customer service that they pride themselves in!     Ed Prechel co-hosts this episode as we had a lot to talk about as well as an update from 4 State Championship Make-a-Break shoot offs!    Dead Pair Swag- https://x062jy-1z.myshopify.com.

    Send us Fan Mail       Ok, so maybe this is not a new "method", idea, or approach to the game. But it was definitely a breakthrough for some shooters that vastly improved their performance and the ability to repeat that performance. So we titled it  "The SDS method", which stand for Slow Down Stupid!  There is a LOT to unpack here, and we were not able to get it all in one episode. However, this 2 part episode is something you will want to listen to again and again, study it, and use it for yourself!
