TESTIMONIALS

Jed S.
After attending a state trap 2024:
I can see here why Iowa is growing so rapidly in shooting sports. This is really something to be proud of.
I am definitely going to get involved more. What an incredible lifelong sport to participate in with my kids.

Otto
After attending a 2024 Intro to Trap clinic:
What did you like most about the course? Everything. I liked the small class and the time to work on stance and hold. I feel more confident and know what my strengths are, now.
What did you like least about the course? That it had to end.

Coach Karen
After attending a 2024 Coach clinic:
What did you like most about the course?
The opportunity to put coaches directly into shooting exercises and apply myself as a coach the 2nd day of the class conducting a practice with student athletes.


Coach Brad G
After attending a 2024 Coach clinic:
Hank's and Paul's knowledge was incredible. I feel so fortunate to have attended this 2-day coach clinic! I have lessons learned in the way that they interact with student-athletes to always focus on the positive. The drills they shared and techniques to practice without the focus on score is a HUGE takeaway for our coaches! We are taking this back to our team so we can change our practice and coaching methods!
Thank you Iowa SCTP!

Tyler
After attending a 2024 athlete clinic:
I liked that they coached me step by step through everything. They helped me with the hold points and aim points.
They made it easier to understand positions and moving stations. Thanks.

John
After attending a 2024 Coach clinic:
I just attended the Dave Miller Clinic and WOW! If I attended this clinic somewhere else I would have spent triple the cost (or more) elsewhere.
​
We had hands-on coach mentoring and role-playing instructing other coaches. It was a great opportunity to collaborate with other teams. What a unique opportunity to get to know other coaches and have lessons learned from them on how I can coach differently.
After I took the class I learned that the IowaSCTP pays travel fees for instructors, targets, and cost of the instructors. I am grateful to be a coach in Iowa! Thank you, Iowa SCTP and DNR!
We want to hear from you!

Scott
After attending a 2024 coach conference:
I always wanted to learn more about skeet doubles but never knew where to start. Ryan and Brendan showed us an overview of doubles skeet in a breakout session at the annual coach conference and we cannot wait to attend this clinic this spring!
Our athletes have shot skeet and need to take their game to the next level with doubles skeet! Cannot wait for the spring clinic!
Thanks.

Chris
After attending a 2024 coach clinic:
I attended a Dave Miller Clinic and the state of Iowa coaches who attended were great to learn beside. I have so many takeaways, but the major one I have is with gun fit. Using a cel phone for line of sight for adjustments is genius. Thank you!!

Dan
After attending a 2024 skeet clinic:
My athletes attended the skeet and skeet doubles clinic. Brendan and Ryan related to our athletes very well.
As a coach, I stayed at the clinic and I learned just as much as our athletes!
They worked on break-points and I took notes on my phone and took them back to our team as we expanded and learn skeet and skeet doubles.

2023 Coach Conference Attendee
I am so impressed with the quality of the speakers and breakout sessions at the 2023 Iowa SCTP Coach Conference!
Where else could I get coaching from Katie Jacob, current USAS National Champion and National Team Member, and former World Cup Team Member?

2023 Coach Conference Attendee
The Coach Panel at the annual coach meeting is always super helpful. I like to hear how other teams manage practices and compeittions, fundraise and how they manage issues with student athletes and parents.

Anotomous Student Athlete
I appreciate my coaches for being honest and telling me the things I am good at. Thanks, coach for practice time and hosting competitions for me to learn.

I wanted to reach out to you and the Iowa SCTP to say Thank you for offering the NSCA Level 1 course. This course has made me a better coach without question. If this course is offered again I would highly recommend anyone with an interest in coaching sporting clays sign up the first chance they get. Please thank everyone at the Oskaloosa Izaac Walton league for hosting the class, top notch people and location for this class.
Thanks again,
Troy Thompson
