New Shooter / Youth Shooter Program
The Casper Skeet, Trap & Sporting Clays club will be holding a
6 week program for New and Youth shooters starting in June. The structure and
intent of the program is to expose and educate new and youth shooters to the
sport of Skeet, Trap and Sporting Clays shooting, proper shooting form, Firearm
safety and general rules commonly found on the range.
This is an excellent no-cost opportunity to learn about the shotgun sports,
learn to shoot better and hit more targets and its FREE!
Anyone who is interested in learning about shotguns and shooting is encouraged
to attend, there is no age or experience limits, we do ask that if more
experienced shooter wish
to participate, that they make a donation toward the program. White Flyer has
donated the targets for this program, the club and its members are donating
their time, experience and expertise to give you this wonderful opportunity.
We will go through basic Firearm Safety, Range Safety and Rules, specific items
of interest concerning shotguns and ammunition. Then we will go out onto the
trap range and
begin shooting and getting everyone comfortable and hitting targets. As the
shooters progress, we will also shoot some skeet targets and sporting clays
