[QUOTE="steve breeden, post: 1898442, member: 42623"] I started my three boys at 10 yrs old. Two shoot competitions. Trap & Sporting Clays. My eldest granddaughter started shooting on a club at 9 yrs old. She’s fairly tall for her age so she did just fine. She placed 3 rd place in prone 22lr 100meter at state last year she had turned 10yrs old by then. Every kid is different! She has a younger sister that is not calm and a bit rambunctious. Not as patient. Most likely won’t be on a shooting team. I’ll take her to a range after we have gone over multiple items which muzzle control will be paramount. The main objective is they need to be mature enough to understand the safety aspects and the firearm is not a toy. It’s up to the adult to make it fun and enjoyable for them. [/QUOTE]
