Globe-Miami Gun Club Looking To Form A Youth Shooting Division

The Globe-Miami Gun Club is looking for junior shooters to form a Youth Shooting Division. If enough juniors want to participate, three shooter teams will be formed and will shoot on the first Saturday of every month. These juniors must be between the ages of 8 years old to 12 years old. The course of fire will be: five shot strings at forty yards from four different positions: prone, sitting, kneeling and standing. Iron-sighted rifles must be furnished by the team members, no scopes allowed. Sponsors will furnish the ammo and awards. The Globe-Miami Gun Club is sponsoring these matches to promote teaching marksmanship to the young hunters in our area. If you have a youngster interested in learning basic marksmanship and safe firearms handling skills please contact Chuck Willis at (928) 402-5641 from 6:30 am to 3 pm Monday through Friday.

If you would like to become a sponsor or coach contact Chuck. This program is open to all interested shooters not just gun club members and their families.
