Your ATA Ideas Part 2 with Jason Barnett | Trap Talk E154

We’re back with Part 2 of the ATA Ideas series — and this time, we brought in someone who helps lead the organization from the inside.

Episode 154 features Jason Barnett, the ATA Central Zone Vice President and a member of the ATA Executive Committee. Jason joins Zach Nannini, Richard Marshall Jr., and Jon to walk through the ideas shooters submitted in Part 1 and share real-world insight into how the ATA operates, what’s currently being worked on, and how decisions and policy changes actually happen.

This episode clears up misconceptions, adds important context, and delivers a transparent look at what’s realistic, what takes time, and where progress can be made.

What we cover:
• shooter ideas from Part 1 — discussed and expanded
• how ATA decisions and policy changes are shaped
• what’s realistic, what isn’t, and why
• where the ATA is focusing long-term
• how members and shooters can support positive momentum

If you care about the future of trapshooting and want a better understanding of how the ATA works, this conversation is worth your time.
