[QUOTE="victor3ranger, post: 2864328, member: 127035"] I started all my kids and grandkids at around 5 years old, with cricket 22 with a scope. I sit or lay beside them and teach them first how to get the full view in the scope and how to hold on the target. Once comfortable we start shooter, teach trigger pull. Always make it fun. Once they get pretty consistent on paper I always go to step 2. That’s when I set up a board and on that board I place 3 spent 12 gauge hulls standing up. Once they hit that consistently I lay empty hulls with the spent primer facing us. The next target is to shoot out the spent primer. We used to shoot steel until one day I was standing behind them as they were going to town flipping steel, all of a sudden something hit me in the forehead, confused I got hit again in the chest, and again in my hand. I shut it down [/QUOTE]
