I was blessed with 3 little girls. I've never regretted having girls but have not had much luck getting interest mustered where shooting is concerned. I have a 15 year old, a nine year old and a 5 year old. The oldest has been a couple of times but doesn't have any interest. The 5 year old has been out in the woods with me a couple of times and is dying to turn 6 so that she can join me at the range. It is the 9 year old who is finally going and I am ecstatic! She asked if we could "Go to the range tonight?" The answer is obvious.
She is very timid and is frightened half to death but I am starting her out with single round loaded magazines in a Walther p22 and with my Neos. Ear plugs as well as electronic hearing protection I am hoping will help prevent shell shock. It is an out door range with plenty of space between lanes.
Any advice any of you might have to help ease her into it would be great. I know this is short notice but I don't want to try and do this at a later date as I think she might change her mind.
