It all began on one particular weekend getaway to the beautiful NC mountains. I decided to bring a few of my guns to shoot. As I set up my target some of the family gathered around to watch. By the end of the day there was a gun in the hands of all of the Helms girls in the family! Once they realized that there was nothing to fear about guns if used safely, they were very interested in learning more about them! I was SO excited to be able to enjoy something I love as much as shooting with my mom and sister!
We now enjoy a weekly visit to the local shooting range to practice and rent new guns to try out. We encourage our friends to come out and shoot with us, it’s always awesome to see other women showing an interest in the sport! It may seem silly to some but shooting guns together and being able to teach my sister all I know about them has brought us closer. Time spent at the range together is priceless and is the highlight of our week! Now she is wanting to learn how to shoot my compound bow! I’ll save that story for another week…
