Virtual Annie Clinc with Grace Callahan
Episode 1: Off-Season Prep Clinic
Put the work in now. Get stronger. More Confident. Empowered with Knowledge.
We’ll cover:
• Shotgun maintenance (keep your gun and gear running flawlessly).
• Strength & stability training specific to shooting.
• Patterning your shotgun so you know where it hits.
• Choke Tubes 101—when, why, and how to use them. Pros and cons of fixed vs. variable, flush vs. extended.
Deeper dive into constriction variations and their impact.
Whether you’re brand new or sharpening your edge, this clinic gives you the tools to start the season prepared—not guessing.

Virtual Annie Clinc with Grace Callahan
Episode 2: Clay Target Disciplines & Target Types 101
Curious about what else is out there? Let’s break it down. Sporting clays is just the beginning.
We’ll explore:
• Super Sporting, FITASC, and Five Stand—gameplay, rules and strategies. Offering local opportunities for practice and fun tournaments. Find out why Super Sporting is the fastest growing clay target discipline (hint: you get some do-overs on singles).
• Target Types 101 – Not all clay targets are created equal! While most of us are familiar with the Standard Orange 108mm clay bird, target setters are increasingly adding in ‘specialty targets’ in all disciplines.
We’ll cover the targets below and practical strategies for attacking each target type with confidence.
• Standard, Midi, Mini
• 70mm, Battue, Rabbit (Rabbue)
• Color variations
*Please note registration closes at 12 p.m. CST Day of event.

Episode 3: Mental Training Clinic
Loosen your grip on Score. Develop the process. Trust the work. Let it happen.
Ever feel like tournaments get in your head? Are your scores not reflecting the work you put into training?
Our Virtual Mental Training is all about:
• Letting go of outcome-based pressure
• Trusting your training when it matters most
• Staying present, calm, and confident station to station
• Becoming process-oriented instead of score-focused
This clinic isn’t about shooting “perfect.”
It’s about shooting free, focused, and resilient—especially under pressure.
*Please note registration closes at 12 p.m. CST Day of event.
