Dumping all that fancy cut foam that Dad spent hour on..... :-)

Exactly

Awesome! Vlad is an underrated national treasure as far as I'm concerned. He truly cares and his knowledge is off the charts.

If you ever need anything, please ask. Who is your daughter?

I tried to see the video but am getting an error

Nice! Did you get it from pardini usa? They are fantastic!!!

Thank you! She's pretty cool! Fun to watch... it has surely been a wild ride over the past 5 years.

Spot on!

There are days when she would shoot 300+ shots in practice. When every point counts you take precautions to make sure that your rifle is not the issue during a match.

My daughter(Olympian) has been using one for the past 4+ years. It has been a terrific rifle. We replace the o-rings every 4 months or so and then do a complete service every year. Pardini USA is terrific and always have parts available. I would recommend Pardini any day.

I agree with Fred above... I think Jayme and JT are some of the best in the business! The results speak for themselves.

Yes it is unfortunately. It's time for that to change...

Central Florida rifle has a club for adults... near Orlando. Other than that I'm not sure.

Yes - Sarasota Military Academy has a club program - contact Riess Pelegrino

Pardini USA was building a range for coaching. Not sure what the latest is though.

One of the best Jr coaches in the country is a little South in Naples... Jayme Shipley https://www.ishootconsulting.com/

Ben, send a message to Mary and ask her to take pictures of hers... she's done a ton of research on it.

That's a good start... get rid of Stacy Weiland next....

theshootersedge.us has the best prices and service...

How do they know what you are shipping?

Welcome Dan!

This thread is awesome. Thank you to all of you.

While it is getting harder I believe as well, the solution that applied here (in NM), and has worked to a great degree, is not relying on the national organizations so much, and digging in and finding other like minded volunteers to get the ball rolling in your area or state. 4-H was/is our first no...

That's a great link, thanks! Unfortunately I mostly struck out with all the suggestions, but there are a couple possible leads. It is really getting harder and harder unfortunately. I don't see a lot of communication between the different governing bodies to help get new youth shooters involved... ...
