I'm a professor at ASU, and shoot 10m air pistol. Back in high school and college, I shot 10m air rifle. I'd be happy to help.

We had our first meeting tonight in MU room 202. We have shot gun side and 10 meter rifle and pistol plus archery indoor.
Yes we will need help I had about 15 people who want to start shooting airgun. Next Friday we are going to have free range day all we ask is a small donation.

Once we get going we are going to have some on Tuesday and some on Thursday. For now we are going to start off with Sporter rifle and move some of the kids into precision rifle next year. We are going to start 10 meter pistol also.
Down the road we are going to add 3p Small Bore Bill do you think PR&G could help with that?

We need all the help we can get?
I'm going to do to setup training course day.

PRGC's junior program shoots only NCAA style smallbore at this time and is very enthusiastically supported by the adult NRA prone smallbore shooters. There is a coach (retired John Jay college coach) and plenty of equipment. We could probably get something going.

The bullseye pistol group also runs olympic pistol and olympic air rifle and they too would welcome new shooters.

Bill we will get started with training get the Students shooting airgun for now. I'm the Airgun coach we are looking for more help and our airgun range is the ASU home range and practice range.
The only shooters off site will be shotgun Ben Avery and when we start SB we will have to talk about PG&R.

Bill does PR&G have a shotgun trap and skeet area?? For now they are going to go to use Ben Avery (long drive).

Rob ... remember when you do sectionals, those shooters firing sporter can still compete in the air-standing event ... they are at a disadvantage, but we have many shooters shooting sporter guns in our air sectional.
