Hi!

I just wanted to introduce myself first, I am new to target talk and i really dont no how to do some things and i have a couple of questions on air guns i a little.

I am 13 and i just started shooting on the Ontelaunee SmallBore Rifle team. Well I was kind of nervous at first cause i was the only girl. Well anyway i was wounder ing how i could get some pointers on how to do really good.

P.S. this isnt my first time picking up a gun i was doing this since i was little!

Don't feel nervous. As you start to travel to competitions you'll see you aren't the only girl in this sport. Our team in Northern, VA is mostly girls (16 kids 12 of them girls), and they almost always outshoot the boys. :)

It's a little late now, but I recommend you go to one of the Junior Shooting camps next summer. There is one or two of them in PA, some down in GA, and the one at Camp Perry.
