There are not many things more annoying than being hit on at a shooting
range, or being offered help shooting "that cute little gun."
This is why we love the Ben Avery Shooting Facility's Annie Oakley Sure
Shots program, and the Thursday "ladies' night." Created to
provide a safe atmosphere for women to learn about and practice shooting
firearms, the group was founded to provide instruction and mentoring for
women, by women. Thursday night is always free for women. The facility,
run by the Arizona Game and Fish Department, has a highly trained staff,
safety officers, ear and eye protection, free ammunition, and a variety
of firearms in a range of calibers. It even has complimentary gun locks.
Membership in the club is also free. No knowledge or possession of
firearms is necessary, and you can progress at whatever pace is most
comfortable for you. Whether you're an experienced shooter or have never
held a gun in your life, this is the place to go if you want to learn
more, or just practice in a testosterone-light zone.
