Women go free. My wife and I signed up last year but something came up. From what I hear it's a good basic introduction to high power type shooting. I have a marlin with the tech sights and I have a rear tech sight front/no dak spud sight on a heavy barrel 10/22. The little trainer 22s are a nice idea. I was busy the past couple of years by my gun club has a 22lr competition every summer and it's usually packed.
