Next Step Youth
August 17 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$59.99This is the second class GAT Guns has to offer designed for young shooters ages 8 through 14. This class is taught by an NRA certified instructor and will pick up where the Youth Handgun Safety Class left off. The class will begin with a review of safe gun handling and range safety. This class will involve more range time than the first youth safety class since we will be working on finetuning shooting skills and determining eye dominance. We will focus on grip, stance, sight alignment, and sight picture. We require one adult per student, even in multi children homes because parents will learn how to properly assist their children on the range.
This class may be taken more than once to continue advancing skills.
