Womans shooting class

[Kanuk]

Hi everyone,

My wife wants to get her CHL but she feels she's unprepared. Apparently I make her nervous, so she doesn't want any instructions from me.

Is there any womans "intro" class in the DFW are that is recommended? preferably closer to FW...

Thanks

You might try something like this: http://www.agirlandagunclub.com/find-a-chapter/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; It looks like there are a few chapters in the D/FW area. I've never been part of one of the A Girl And A Gun groups, but I'm a member of what I believe is a similar group and it's been great for getting going as a beginning shooter.

And just a side note: not wanting instruction from you is nothing to take personally. I love my husband and I enjoy shooting with him, but when I was first getting started I preferred not to have him around. When I'm trying to learn something new, I prefer to do it by myself until I've built up some confidence. I even sent him away when I was doing dry fire exercises at first, because it made me feel self-conscious. I'd let her get her instruction elsewhere, and you can be her shooting buddy once she feels more comfortable. :)

don't feel bad, most men make their wives "nervous"....I really don't think it's that so much as a fear of "failing" in front of their man. I still get flustered with him around sometimes.

Ladies,

Thank you very much for your responses.

Don't worry about me, I've been married for 16 years, I understand the way I learn and do things is very different from the way she does. If we were both identical in every way one of use would be redundant. :D

Tracy, I love your signature. I'm stealing it. :D

Ah, you're an old pro, then -- congrats on 16 years! Looking forward to getting there myself.

Try shootsmart. I remember vaguely that they had a intro to handguns taught by a female instructor and a chl class as well. They have a location in FW as well as GP.
