Hey all. My 9yr old daughter has been shooting for a few years now and has mentioned about getting into competition shooting. I haven't really taken her too seriously, thinking it was just a phase like dancing and soccer were. However since attending the NRA this weekend she is pushing it even more. The only problem is I have no idea where to start. I've tried to look up info online but so far everything I've found starts at age 12.
I was hoping someone could help me out and give some direction of what is around for her age group. She is more into either pistol or 3 gun type events. Basically something fast paced. She doesn't do as well with long range marksmanship type shooting. Is there even anywhere we could go to observe others her age in action so she can see first hand and decide if she really wants to try? She has seen plenty of TV shows and YouTube videos, but that's nothing like seeing it in person. We live in Indy but are willing to drive if necessary.
Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
