In this episode of the Modern Day Sniper Podcast, Caylen sits down with Francis Colon for a wide-ranging conversation on precision rifle competition, mindset, training, and the deeper process of becoming a better shooter. What starts with stories about brutal mountain passes, wind, and match prep quickly opens into a thoughtful discussion on how competitors actually improve over time—and what separates surface-level performance from long-term mastery.
Francis shares his evolution from a self-taught hunter and competitor into one of the most respected shooters in the precision rifle world, breaking down how he approaches training, speed, recoil management, visual processing, target acquisition, and the mental game of competition. Together, Caylen and Francis dig into everything from first-shot wind calls, simplicity in training, and the value of 100-yard practice, to imposter syndrome, gear selection, controlling what you can control, and why high-level performance often feels effortless only after years of intentional work.
This is a deep episode for shooters who want to sharpen both their technical skillset and their mindset—and better understand the game within the game.
