Thank you for a fantastic weekend. I would highly recommend this program to any female, regardless of skill set. The instructors were knowledgeable & patient as well as adding a fun component. I appreciated the history presented in an "objective and impartial" point of view. I really liked the personalized instruction given in a comfortable environment.
Thanks again for volunteering your time. Looking forward to seeing you again end of month in Wilmington...perhaps, with my own rifle. :)
Warm Regards,

Welcome to the forum...is this Annette by chance? It was a great Ladyseed in Miamisburg. Thanks to our shooters who all showed so much progress during the event. It was great to have such teachable students who were eager, and open which made it additionally fun. Hope to see each one of you on the line again soon somewhere. Don't forget to bring friends, family members, or significant others:)
Yes, it's Annette! It was great to have 3 instructors share their expertise & perspective. Thanks again for volunteering your time & sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Hope to see you again soon!
What a WONDERFUL weekend! Thanks ladies for sharing your vast knowledge of history and rifles and helping us to learn and grow. I had a wonderful time, learned a lot, showed improvement, and ended the weekend a Sharpshooter. I'd call that not bad for the first time out. New goal: Rifleman!
Thank you instructors for your time, patience, and enthusiasm.
On another note, the male instructor I met was also super, but I do have to tell you that any time a guy approached our little group the vibe did change. I don't know what to call it, but it's not crazy, an all woman's group is a great thing and offers a type of camaraderie and support for women that a mixed group will never have. (Not to say I wouldn't attend an Appleseed mixed event.) Thank you for offering it this way, it's a comfortable way for a woman to get started, especially if she has no firearms experience.
Thanks again,
Louise
P.S. - When can we see pictures?
