What do you like most about the SLG shooting trailer?
Archery of course!! ;) I love the fact that ladies can come into the trailer and experience different venues of shooting, under a very controlled environment. SLG instructors are very knowledgeable about the equipment available and we all have the passion for teaching others to get into the sport. Whether it be for hunting, competition, self-defense, or a new hobby. Ladies can take their time, ask questions and learn. It is the best experience to share with ladies when they have that “ah-ha” moment and seeing the confidence they gain. I think it is the overall atmosphere.
