How to Teach Children to Shoot
Ask if your club has a youth program. The best style of gun to teach with is a single shot bolt action .22. or single shot air rifle. Many clubs have hunter safety programs and use SSBA .22s for training, you may be able to borrow these. If that doesn't work, develop a relationship with local gun dealers. Often they'll take in SSBA .22s in trade or as part of an estate, many used guns are worth less than $100, you may be able to get them as a donation or for a significant discount. If worse comes to worst you may have to buy them,[url=http://www.sport.fr/smartphones/moncler.asp]moncler homme[/url], online retailers such as gunbroker and Bud's Gun Shop can be good sources of used SSBA .22s. Depending upon how many lanes you plan to run and the ages of your students you may need twice as many guns as lanes. Small children will need youth rifles where teenagers can handle full sizes rifles. It's important to fit the gun to the child. Shooting rifles incurs expenses, you'll need ammunition and targets for your students. Plan on 10 rounds per target. Cheap .22 ammunition runs about 4 to 5 cents per round and targets can be had for about 10 cents each. So, each time a student comes to the firing line it'll cost about 60 cents. Most students can shoot through 30 to 50 rounds per hour if they have to share lanes, more if they can keep a lane for the full hour. Depending on your program it could cost up to $5/student per event. You can cover these costs by charging entry fees, or through the support of your club. Some clubs will fund youth programs outright, others may do fund raising and provide funds to the program. As with anything, doing the same thing over and over again can get boring. Liven up your program by developing enhancements. Shooting at different types of targets such as small hard candies glued to cardboard, or clay targets, or contests determining who can get the smallest groups can maintain the interest. Start each session with a lecture how to improve your shooting, or talk about gun laws in your area. Kids want to know that adults are looking out for them and want them to succeed. Acknowledging a student and offering words of advice and encouragement can make a student feel like they're progressing. Sure, getting that bulls eye is great, but so long as they know that they're improving will keep it fun for them. Have something worthwhile to say to every student and your program will thrive. Not everybody should get a trophy, students need to learn that merit gets rewarded. Best shot, most improved, best attitude are all deserving of recognition. Kids who step up and help setup or clean up should get special recognition. Programs like USAS Passport or BSA merit badges provide great ways for student's to develop with clear understandable objectives.
