Years ago (when I was a state champion archer) I taught my wife to shoot a bow. She took 3rd at the NC state indoor tournament. But MAN when she did bad.

I also taught her how to shoot my .300 Winchester Magnum rifle. When she tipped her head down and got nailed over the eye from the scope I never heard the end of it because I didn't warn her.

Sorry, but I'm too old for that shit now!!

How old is your son? The courses I play will allow kids anytime when accompanied by an adult. May have to ride depending on day/time, but still can play.

Best thing about taking the GF to the range is that she usually buys dinner afterwards.

Knowing that 5 minutes could be better spent drinking another beer or putting a dent in that pile of ribs.
Pretty good argument but I still say it's easier when there's no reason to convince anyone but myself. If I wanted I could put a new set of irons in the bag once a month and she'd never notice.

I'll never know about the rest because she really has no interest at all in playing.

Ummmm, perhaps a .22 would have been better? Or is the .300 WM your squirrel gun?
