My wife loves to carry every day, which is a good thing. But she doesn't care for shooting much, and therefore only practices when I force her to come dispose of her carry ammo. This is not a good thing. At first she shot a lot, but now its only 3-4 times per year. She used to be quite good, but last time I took her out she couldn't hit a milk gallon at 5 yards until about her 3rd mag. I am growing very concerned that her possession of a gun with which she is not well trained could actually be more dangerous for her than not carrying at all.
I'm not sure how to approach this... she says that after a few mags, her wrist gets tired... so I bought her a .22 pistol to practice with along side the 9mm she carries. Still, I have to literally beg her to go shoot. However, I couldn't take away her carry piece if I tried... she doesn't leave home without it, and I want her to be armed.
So, how do you guys get your ladies to practice more? Promise them foot massages for hitting the 10 ring, free chocolate at the range, a complementary Prada bag with every case of ammo sent down range???
Please tell.
