Need fun class for my wife

Postby Kelor on Fri Jan 25, 2013 6:06 pm

I hope this is where to put this.

Several years ago (after one of my best friends died in a mall shooting in Utah), I took my wife to a basic class at Bills in Circle Pines. In addition to a bedside gun, I got her a fun little Walther P22. She shot it a few times at the cabin, and that was it.

She's now interested again, but I want to start from scratch.

I'm looking for a class that is both informative and fun, as well as suggestions on how to keep her interested. Is there couple programs/leagues for beginners as an example?

Thanks in advance.

You might want to look into Date Night or Spy Date Night here:

I haven't tried it myself but read about it and seems like it might be a fun way to get the spouse involved.

It's nice that the two of you share an interest. My wife and I fish and shoot together, among other things. My advice to you is to get her into some bigger calibers slowly. Before you know she will be shooting bigger guns than you are.
Donald Trump got more fat women moving in one day than Michelle Obama did in eight years.

There's ladies night Wednesdays at Bill's Robbinsdale and Hudson, or a Ladies Basic course taught at all 3 locations.

I'm sending my gf to TTS's women's class. I don't recall the exact class name but I like the idea of other women helping "normalize" the concept of women wanting to shoot/own a gun.
