Woohoo!!!!  Great job guys!

My daughter's class was dominated by females.  Better than half at least.
That is awesome.

The thing about getting females into those classes is that it is great for them to at least get exposed to hunting and the reasons for it.

Let's face it, women talk way more than men and they vote more than men.  If they can be educated on hunting and the reasons for it maybe they will tell their friends what they have learned and hopefully not vote to restrict hunting.  At the very least they can spread the word about the other side of the issue, not just bambi getting shot.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Great! Lots of women are interested in becoming hunters, and with the learning resources available today they can actually get in to it even if they weren't raised to hunt. Another reason to keep sharing!

I use to run the youth archery program at the club I belong to. I would say it was 60% girls learning to shoot a bow. I told the moms one of the first nights that they could shoot too if they wanted. They all grabbed a bow and came in the next week with their own bows. Love to see woman participating and to plug archery, it's easy for them to get equipment that fits.

The Renton gun club put on a great class & the diverse group was awesome...

It was my 3rd time sitting through a safety course after having been for myself & with both my kids...

If you're in the area its definitely a great ran class...
