NO MORE BRUISES
I’ve shot shotguns my whole life. First my dads, then my husbands. We had a clay thrower growing up and I thought it was a pretty fun activity. After shooting 10 or 20 times though I would be banged up and bruised. I thought it was just part of it. WRONG!! When I was invited to shoot with the gals of Passionate Outlaws I had reservations because the thought of shooting more than a couple rounds seemed daunting. Tracy got me fitted for an amazing Syren semi-automatic that has been a great. I have so much pride shooting MY beautiful gun. My #1 piece of advice is: gun fit matters. Thanks to Tracy I can actually enjoy shooting and continue to grow my skills and knowledge about the sport of trap shooting and shotguns in general. ~Meggie Sims

SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE IS DOING
I wasn't sure what to expect; all my shotgun experiences have been through the lens of the men in my life - my dad, my brother and then my husband - both shooting and purchasing. It has been one of those things - I enjoy it enough to do it, but it has always felt like I was putting on a shoe that wasn't quite my size. This all changed when I met (begrudingly) with Tracy. She showed me the guns, she tested my dominant eye, checked my sizing, etc. And put me in a left-handed shotgun. I am right-handed, I have shot righty all my life, and this just blew my mind. I could tell right away this was a change that needed to happen - immediately, I was more comfortable mounting and sighting. It took a few times to really get used to it, which was frustrating at first. But now, I am shooting better than I ever had as a righty. Tracy really knows what she is doing, knows what to look for, and will get you in a gun that fits you, personally and perfectly! ~Erin Brotherton

INCOMPARABLE EXPERIENCE
There’s something wonderful and magical that happens in the presence of greatness. Tracy knows shotguns and is great at fitting her customer and infusing them with her great knowledge. Being with her is incomparable to the numerous gun purchases my husband and I have made. A++ in knowledge, service, attention to detail, and what an absolutely fantastically pleasurable experience. A memorable gun purchase that I wont forget! Tracy is a delight and knows her stuff. If you’re a woman (or man) this is the place to go to look at, shoot, and talk shotguns with an experienced shooter!!! Make an appointment with Tracy, and be wowed by her care, experience, and thoughtful consideration. It was one of the best decisions I made! Thank you Tracy, you’re awesome! ~Robin Thomas

KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EXTREMELY HELPFUL
I am so thankful to know Peggy and be able to buy a shotgun from her. She was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in helping me determine what shotgun would be the best for me. I am so in love with my Syren! I will recommend her to any woman looking to buy a gun that’s designed for a woman! ~Jacque Johnson

GUNS NEVER FIT MY SMALL FRAME
"I recently began trap shooting and really enjoyed it so much that I wanted to buy my own shotgun. Most of the guns I’d shot never fit really well since they were not designed for women in mind. I was delighted to have found Peggy Houchin, who allowed me to demo a handful of Syren shotguns, specifically designed for women. Peggy made the process fun and easy by describing the features of each and having me shoot each one to see which I liked best. Almost immediately, I found the shotgun that fit my small frame like a glove. Peggy knows her products well, and there was never any pressure to buy. I really enjoyed my experience purchasing my shotgun from Peggy and would highly recommend her to any woman looking to buy a beautiful Syren that they’ll love for years to come.” ~Deidre

NEW TO SHOOTING
"I am new to shooting a shotgun. I didn't get into it sooner because I had only tried shotguns that didn't really fit me and was overwhelmed with all the choices out there. There was not really a great opportunity to test out ones that didn't need to be modified to fit me. I was so grateful that Peggy Houchin introduced me to Syren. I had a wonderful experience on multiple occasions demoing different options to see which style I liked shooting the best. I was impressed with all the Syrens I tried out. I chose the Syren Elos N2 Elevate and I love shooting it! It was a great fit right out of the box and with that out of the way I can focus on my targets." - Suzanne P.

Ron/Ethan Prescott
Paso Robles, California

Team Xcel Demo Representatives |Midstate Precious Metals

Ron Prescott, a proud Marine Corps veteran and owner of Midstate Precious Metals, brings craftsmanship and commitment to the shooting sports community—creating high-quality trophies for clubs and teams nationwide.

His son, Ethan Prescott, is a Junior Gold shooter with AAA/27/AA classifications and titles including Western Zone Singles Champion (2022) and California State Singles Champion (2023). He shoots a Kolar unsingle with Pilla lenses and AA ammo.

Together, Ron and Ethan represent the heart of Team Xcel—family, dedication, and a passion for helping others grow in the sport.

Pro-Tip from Ethan “Find your zone. You will never master a club, an angle, a specific event, or a discipline. What is in your control is mastering your zone. Your mental game and preparation before, during and after the shot is in your control and the key to successful shooting.”

Why Team Xcel? “Being part of Team Xcel, is, in short, joining a family. A family of shooters and affiliated individuals with a love and passion for trapshooting and other shooting sports. Being able to join and help spread understanding and knowledge. Trapshooting has become not only a large part of my life, but a large part of who I am. I want to support those who have selflessly supported me, and do the same for others within this community. It’s not about what the shooting industry and affiliates can do to promote me or my shooting, but more so how can I help those in this industry and sport, especially those just starting out. I see these same morals, ethics and values with Xcel. And that is what makes me want to combine and collaborate with this team.”
