If You're Like Most Shooters, Your Mind Is the Real Problem… Not Your Mechanics.
Even skilled shooters fall apart because of:
❌ Overthinking their next shot
❌ Getting tense after a miss
❌ Losing confidence halfway through
❌ Shooting great one round and terrible the next
❌ Comparing themselves to other shooters
Your brain defaults to survival mode.
It spikes your heart rate, narrows your focus, throws off timing, and hijacks your round.
That’s what the Starter Pack fixes.

Testimonials
I wasn't sure at first, but having these tools on the line helped me reset between boxes. My scores improved and I didn't get angry with my couple misses.
Jason, CA
Stephanie created tools that helped me stay in the subcortex and improve my shooting. I haven't won an ATA match in years. Last week I won my first handicap shoot!
Joe, PA
These are a game changer for those of us trying to compete. One or two misses don't matter but when we spiral, that is where my game would fail. The Subcortex Regulation Guide proved its value when I was able to shoot my first ever 100 straight!
Paul, MT

I built MentalClays because I watched too many shooters lose their confidence, not because they lacked skill, but because no one ever taught them how the brain affects performance. As a law enforcement professional, licensed clinical social worker, and competitive shooter, I’ve seen firsthand how stress, pressure, and emotion sabotage even the most experienced athletes. Traditional coaching focuses on mechanics — but mechanics fall apart if the mind isn’t regulated. MentalClays was created to give shooters simple, practical tools backed by neuroscience, so they can stay calm, shoot consistently, recover quickly from mistakes, and finally perform at the level they know they’re capable of. This isn’t mindset fluff — it’s brain training built for shooters who want more from themselves.
