Men get your wives talked into it. 4 hours is a good introduction and easy on the ladies who don't want to spend 8 hours minimum if not a whole weekend on the range. Great way to ease into it.

Their plan is to offer the same course for Shotgun and Rifle later.

Also, I volunteer as a range safety officer, so I make nothing from it. I just like shooting and helping out! :thumbsup

Just show up and bring cash or a check. $250 (ish) per year. They don't really call people back. I saw them signing someone up just a couple weeks ago.

This course will be based on the NRA First Steps Pistol Course.

I appreciate you guys/gals getting the word out. This course is the idea of the instructor leading it, and if we get a good response, she will be able to offer additional women's courses.

If anything, it helps women get to a course without their spouses/significant others. At another place I've worked/helped out, they will separate spouses, but do it in a way that doesn't seem like they are trying to separate spouses....just putting repeat students with new students, but the real goal is to separate spouses only because of the stress they put on each other especially in the beginning. Towards the end of the classes, we put them back together as we want to try and induce stress so they can see what happens to their skills under some stress.
