Official kids at the gun range thread

[Wildcat Diva]

Middle son Garrett at his first Steel Challenge match at Area 59 today. I shot too, same rifle. We had six 30 round mags so that was no problem sharing a gun.

He had a great time and wants to come out again soon.

The link loads the photo. As long as your little guy is wearing a green shirt and shooting a bow. Looks like he's really enjoying himself.

Safety is safety no matter whether a rifle or bow.
Good form.
Good job all around.

My daughter attended to Meet yesterday and got some trigger time in after things settled down a bit. She had a great time and always enjoys getting to the range.

Yeah she is.. nice shooting! I was told by an instructor once that women tend to be better shots than men, something about having better eyesight.

The other three benches had (non forum members) shooters with ARs fitted with brakes and fancy red dots. They were cranking on their adjustments and shooting buckshot sized groups.

We shot 2 rounds to sight in and she had at it. She went after the numbers on the target after the center got blown out.

The kids at the meet-up warmed my heart. Dawico, I was thrilled to see her there and get to meet her. Congrats.

Warning - Off Topic...but just a little

I was told by an instructor once that women tend to be better shots than men, something about having better eyesight.

I pretty much never use my NRA cert to teach formal classes with multiple students. However, I've taught many women in a one-on-one setting. My observation is that women are easier to teach than men (yes, this is wildly generalizing) for two reasons:

• They don't have as many bad habits that need to be broken.
• They don't have the emotional baggage of men, most of whom seem to feel they are the metaphorical descendants of John Wayne and don't need no stinkin' instruction.

The late, great Louis Awerbuck, one of the finest firearms instructors who ever lived, said:

The best class you will ever see is a dozen 14-year-old girls who have never fired a pistol before.

Yeah, me too. She was great too, not taking shit from anybody.

She took my picking in stride and even folired back a couple times. She's good in my book and welcome at the range anytime. Them kids were a blast to have.

If she has to live with Dawico I'm sure she's well practiced and dealing with smart ass comments.

I resemble that remark.

Bully for her!

Here is my daughter learning everything from rifles to shotguns.

My “kid” finally made time to go out to the range for a little bit of pistol practice. His gf stayed in the car but at least that’s a start.

I just wanted him to get some range time.

He can still shoot.
