Ladies Learn to Shoot - Sept. 25th
This was once again a sold out event, with 44 ladies who came out to experience the fun and excitement of shooting Sporting Clays at our semi annual Ladies Learn to Shoot. It was an all day affair starting with breakfast, safety orientation, shooting on the green course & a lovely buffet lunch. Following the morning activities the ladies were invited to participate in wine tasting and a little early Christmas shopping at our Trade Show, which featured a variety of local vendors. Coyote Design from Sundre, Holyberry soaps from Carstairs, DoTerra Essential Oils representative Donna from Airdrie, and Bartier Brother Wines from Oliver BC.
First Annual Annie Oakley Ladies Shoot - Sept 25th
This was the first ever Ladies Fun Shoot held at Silver Willow. The group of competitive lady shooters, all enjoyed the challenge of our Blue Course with Ann Neil shooting the high score of the day. Thank you to all the participants, it was wonderful to have the new lady shooters meet the competitive shooters and hear Ann share her shooting story! It was a fantastic day that featured Ghirardelli Chocolate from San Francisco, for the prizes. The afternoon featured all sorts of exciting door prizes. The "grand" door prize was a free private lesson with Luther Cutts, it was won by our youngest shooter of the day, Paige.
Congratulations Ann !!

Instinct Catalyst
The Gun for Women
The Italian tradition and craftsmanship of the Franchi Instinct series, fully re-imagined in an innovative, affordable, 12-ga. over & under built specifically for women. Like its sister, the Affinity Catalyst, our Instinct Catalyst's stock has been redesigned with a drop, cast, pitch, length-of-pull and grip length that better aligns with a woman's body. Red, fiber-optic front sights put eyes on target quickly and confidently, with a classic, A-Grade satin walnut finish that just looks right, as well. Much more than just a shorter stock dressed in pink, this is a shotgun that immediately feels right in the hands and on the shoulder of today's female shooters.

Bob Ferguson
Bob started shooting when he was about twelve years old with his father and grandfather.
In his early adulthood he pursued other outdoor activities until about 12 years ago when he discovered Sporting Clays. Bob shot regularly and competed before he took the the NSCA instructor's course and has been instructing for the past eight years.
Bob has now
shot competitively for a number of years at the Master class level. However, instructing for Bob has been his highlight. He finds it very satisfying to see the excitement in people when they hit their first target.
If you would like to book a lesson, you can read below and follow the links to book a private lesson.
