twodownzero Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 So far I've taken a ton of people to matches and introduced them. Of those people, I referred my third person last weekend, who shot a classifier match and when the classifiers run this month, will be the Single Stack division's newest classified shooter. Everyone says universities are places to find people who hate guns. I haven't found too many haters, but I sure have found a bunch of eager people who want to shoot, and I'm going to keep introducing people to the sport until I can't anymore. Many new shooters I've tried to introduce aren't competitive and so they don't come to matches, and that's fine, too. But what do I really like? Introducing new shooters to our game and culture. The newest one couldn't believe how nice and helpful the other shooters were, especially the range officers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gohuskers Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Big +1 on this. I referred someone there this year. The more we can get involved in the sport, especially juniors and females, the better off we'll be in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flexmoney Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I have yet to have anybody come at me as a "gun hater"...and I mention our stuff quite often. Some aren't very familiar with the culture...and some find it fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some aren't very familiar with the culture...and some find it fascinating. I used to be reluctant to talk about our sport because I thought people would be dismissive or not understand. Now I'm reluctant to talk about it because I don't have enough ammo to get them all started! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twodownzero Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Lol.. Get steel challenged started locally...they can shoot rimfire. Actually that's more of a challenge than anything else. I wish I knew why...because I love shooting steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
