Trap Talk with LPRG General Manager Bryan Weeks

- March 6, 2026

Listen to Trap Talk hosts Zach Nannini and Richard Marshall Jr. as they sit down with Bryan Weeks to talk trap!

Trap enthusiasts won’t want to miss this great discussion between Trap Talk hosts, Zach Nannini and Richard Marshall Jr. as they sit down with Livermore Pleasanton Rod and Gun Club General Manager, Bryan Weeks.  For those who don’t know Bryan yet, he’s an avid shooting sports enthusiast and competitor who is the 2025 California State ATA Singles Champion, and a three-time PITA All-Star.


In this episode of Trap Talk, Bryan shares how he got hooked after hitting his first target in 2005, his journey from league shooter to running one of the largest trap facilities in California, and what it really takes to keep a gun club running smooth.


The conversation digs deep into:

  • 74th Annual Golden West Grand (May 6–10) — gold coin belt buckles for every event, shooter appreciation dinner, and why this shoot is a West Coast classic
  • Multi-State Challenge coming to Livermore (April 17–19) — a new All-American point shoot giving California shooters better access to compete
  • North Bay & South Bay leagues — how these monthly 150-target competitions shaped some of California's best shooters
  • California trap shooting legends — Dave Kelly, Bob Graves, Rich Bullard, and the nostalgia of shooting at Livermore, Martinez, and Sunnyvale what makes a sea-level target so tough — and why Zach's 100 straight at Martinez is still a story worth telling


Whether you're planning a trip to California to shoot at Livermore Pleasanton Rod and Gun Club or just want to hear some classic trap talk and war stories, this one's for you.
