I'm a student at the UW graduating in May and want to take up deer hunting after I graduate. Originally from Kenosha, I just purchased a .22 rifle there over winter break as a starting gun. I have no hunting history, and my firearm background is mainly shooting dad's 12 gauge around the farm. I have no rifle experience or formal firearm education.
Prior to taking a hunter safety course this summer, I want to gain experience with rifle shooting. Using Google, I haven't found any rifle ranges within 15 miles of campus. Are there any instructors on the board who can teach me on private property closer to Madison? Or any recommendations?
I have always heard that it's better to learn how to shoot correctly the first time than to later struggle trying to correct the flaws.
Thanks in advance for the help!
