[QUOTE="jrw1976, post: 386097, member: 24286"] All of the above. I think the kids would have great fun learning about everything from the competitions to the proper way of sighting in a rifle. But that might be asking to much to shove all of that into one day. My original thought was to have them learn about the proper ways to set themselves up for shots in all the practical hunting positions from someone that is a better teacher than I am with nice facilities to hold it at. Our hunter safety program does splash over these topics but they are not gone into with very much detail because of time constraints. Then as they learn the proper way to preform these positions they would be able to apply what they have learned on the range with say .22 LR's out to 200 yards. Which would also give them a chance to learn about windage and elevation. My goal is to teach them how to be more precise hunters instead just going out and slinging lead untill the critter goes down and then learning from thier mistakes on thier own. Like most of the rest of us have had to do. [/QUOTE]
