Proper Confidence in a relaxed atmosphere is the key.

The memorial shoot held at Brads place this year would be a perfect spot to harass some gongs and learn a 1000 things, come along TimK

Where and when is the memorial shoot? I was actually looking for a coaching service or someone I could pay to spend some time helping me to make sure I don't form bad habits. On the flip side I could also just go and enjoy and practise and not overthink it. ....

I would be dubious about paying someone. It's easy to talk the talk and take your money without giving a shit about you or your safety.

Where are you based? I'm no F class champ but could tell you what I do know. I'm sure plenty of other forum members.

Scroll down this page to "Toby Goodley Memorial Shoot"

Post in there of your intentions to attend the shoot and your location, someone will have a space in a vehicle to get you to and from the shoot, it will be an experience you will never forget, with people that will never let you forget


You will learn valuable amounts about shooting and have a lot of fun in the process.
Make yourself known to one of the Range Officers on the day and you will be looked after
