PHOENIX –-(Ammoland.com)- There’s no better way for women 9 and older to learn about firearm safety and receive hands-on instruction shooting trap, skeet and sporting clays than signing up for the Desert Roses women’s shotgun program at the Ben Avery Shooting Facility.
For $10, a shooter – whether new to the shotgun shooting sports or just needing a refresher – can sign up for three sessions, beginning Thursday (Oct. 6). The fee includes use of a loaner shotgun, ammunition, eye and ear protection, targets and coaching by certified instructors.
Desert Roses meets at 6 p.m. the first and third Thursday of each month. This is a seasonal program; sessions are not offered during the summer months.
