Howdy Howdy shotgun shooters and welcome to the second episode of the Shoot the Skeet! The podcast is made for youth shotgun shooters by youth shotgun shooters! I am very excited to introduce you to two very talented friends of mine from the Texas A&M Trap and Skeet team, Sydney Craven and Madi Barbee. Fresh off being crowned runner-up team at nationals and ready to talk about all things shotgun shooting!
Today we are focusing on shooting collegiately. Including:
- Handling the mental pressure,
- Being a woman in a male-dominated sport
- Practicing tactics that have changed their games. (And hopefully will change yours too!)
Our Guest Shooters!
Sydney Craven started shooting at 10 years old after her father forced her into it and she fell in love. Involved in not only the shooting aspect of 4H, she was also an officer in her hometown club. This has transferred to her being a crucial officer for the A&M Skeet and Trap team. She is a past Texas 4-H state team member and collegiate ladies’ national champion. She will be talking with us about practice styles, mental challenges within the sport, and overcoming them.
Madi Barbee started shooting in 6th grade when her little brother started to show an interest in it. Albeit she claims she didn’t truly fall in love until she joined the A&M team. She is a skilled shooter on A&M’s team and was a part of the 2023 National Champion team contributing greatly. Furthermore, Madi is a highly decorated shooter within 4H, FFA, and SCTP. She is excited to discuss mentality within the sport, especially, in a male-dominated sport.
Be sure to tune in and hear everything these two talented individuals have to say. Undeniably, you’ll be inspired to pick up your shotgun and SHOOT SOME SKEET!!
