    You should throw some carbines in there. We can take a poll on which is easier to operate and which one they'd rather have in a defensive situation.

    Not this time. We are trying to keep it manageable. Cannot do everything at once and do it well.

    My two sisters are believed to be registered for this great event. They will be in attendance.

    The event went off. Would love to here some feedback here from ladies that were there.

    Thanks to WVPPS, NWTF and RCC for the support. The RO crew was good once again. We could not do it without them.

    Ladies Day at the Range turned out to be a great day. I can not think of anything that could of been done any different. I Thank RCC, staff and sponsors of this event. The RO's did a excellent job. It was a lot of fun and a great confidence builder. The bays were set up with a lot of targets. A special Thanks to Coach for the great job of getting around to help all of the ladies present. I am looking forward to another event in the future. I just wanted to let you know your hard work was appreciated. Thanks again.

    I had an enjoyable day.
    Everyone was safe and all the ladies seemed to be having a great time.
    Coach's midday instuction on the proper grip seemed to tighten up groups in the afternoon.

    Ladies tend to listen, and in shooting like most things the fundamentals make a big difference.
