Basic Shotgun Training

Shotgun sports are exciting and enjoyable way to spend a day at the range or walking through the brush with a good bird dog hunting pheasants.

The Basic Shotgun class provides more in-depth training than the 1st Steps Shotgun class by teaching you how to safely handle, use and store all types of shotguns. Like the 1st Steps class, it also provides you the opportunity to shoot a variety of shotgun brands, types and gauges.

This 10 plus hour class is focused on those who want greater shotgun knowledge. Plenty of time and ammunition will be available for practice after the class.

The class fee includes ammunition, targets, range fees and gun rental if required. Extra targets and ammunition will be available for after class shooting for an additional fee.
