That seems more a comment on ATA demands than anything else

Actually the shooter I was thinking of is lower than Matt. He is also MUCH larger so the visual was far more ridiculous.

Stance means a lot. There are so many things to trap shooting. Try this: Most people focus on the top of the house when they call for the target. Try focusing out past the trap house on an object. Maybe 100 yards out. And when you call for the target, your focus will come inward toward the target. Rather than going outward and trying to find the target......... Look out the window at something where you are sitting right now. Then look at something right in front of you........NOW look at the object right in front of you then look out the window and find the object you were looking at before. Your eyes focus a lot faster coming inward (back toward you) than they do going out away from you............ Then there was the great Jimmy Walker. I shot with no one better. He would run 25 straight shooting from the hip from the 27 yard line. Then he would just look over at you and grin. Or maybe say, "How'd you like that!!??" I thought he was just lucky the first time I saw him do it. Then I noticed guys on trap shooter.com would say he did it all the time. He passed away a few years ago. Great shooter. And all-around athlete.
