About ClayScout
Built by Shooters, for Shooters
We're building the platform we wished existed — where every clay target athlete can be discovered on the strength of their scores alone.
Our Mission
Clay target shooting is the fastest-growing high school sport in America, yet recruiting remains stuck in the dark ages. Coaches rely on word of mouth. Athletes from rural areas go unnoticed. Talent gets left behind.
ClayScout changes that. We aggregate verified tournament scores from every major sanctioning body — ATA, NSCA, and SCTP — and build objective, data-driven profiles for every youth athlete in the country. No self-reported stats. No inflated numbers. Just real performance data that speaks for itself.
Whether you're a 5-star shooter from Texas or a rising talent in a small-town Minnesota league, ClayScout gives you the same platform — and the same shot at getting recruited.
What We Stand For
