Episode Details

At just 16 years old, Chase Beckley has already won a PRS Pro Series match and established himself as one of Canada’s top precision rifle competitors.

In this episode, Chase and his father, Tyler, share how their journey began in Cranbrook, British Columbia, and how Chase progressed from shooting his first match at age 10 to competing against—and beating—some of the shooters he once looked up to.

They break down the training behind that progression, including working with Jake Vibbert, building fundamentals through dry fire, learning to manage mental fatigue, and developing the ability to enter and exit a flow state during a match.

Chase also explains why being brutally honest about his performance changed his approach. Instead of blaming the wind, equipment, or conditions, he learned to identify what actually went wrong—while still focusing on the 90% he did right.

The conversation also covers switching from 6XC to 6 Dasher, becoming more coachable, the challenges of competing as a father-son team, and Chase’s goals heading into the Precision Rifle World Championships.

Whether you’re a new shooter or an experienced competitor trying to break through to the next level, this episode is packed with lessons on practice, mindset, accountability, and performing under pressure.
