So Awesome!!!

I miss instructing

Getting kids into the sport was the greatest reward...

I wonder how she does 'Show and Tell' at school?

That brought a tear to my eye.... I watched the full auto parts a few times... I can only hope that my 5 year old can shoot that well some day...

All I could think of while watching the first part was Joe Biden's stupid comment about how women can't handle an AR and they're worthless for a woman defending her home.

Wonder what this young lady would tell him.

Holy smokes, I would feel pathetic going up after her.

Incredible young gal and I assume an incredible father/mother with some incredible parenting.

It is a 12 gauge Benelli. I am Katelyn's dad and she has been shooting since she was 5.
She just started 3Gun last year. Go to fb and give her a 'like' http://www.facebook.com/#!/3gunkatie
Any sexist comments, I'm going to send her your way to take care of my light work!!!!

[/quote]Congrats to you and her. It appears you're a great father, but I see nothing that proves you are a decent human being. You could remedy that by letting me come over and train with your full auto and your ammo.

Good luck. The main thing is to stress safety over and over. I still make my daughter recite the universal safety rules every time before she shoots. I bought my three year old her first AR when she was one!!

Haha..... Way to go Chad and Katy!

Posted: 1/31/2013 10:07:58 AM EDT

[#38]

Katy is a great kid and always makes a match even more enjoyable. I've been shooting with her for about a year and you can tell she is getting better and better every match. This girl is going to go far.
But she's a Missouri girl, that's where good people come from, right?

Congrats to her parents on such a fine job.

Her shotgun reload is something to aspire to.

Posted: 1/31/2013 11:06:20 AM EDT

[#40]

little Katie improved a lot each time I shot with her....from moving from a 20ga to a 12ga almost seemlessly, and whooping up on guys right and left.

........her dad can't shoot worth a damn tho. Don't worry Mr. Francis, I've been napping alot and only teaching CCW classes all winter while you shot......I wanna make it fair.

btw.....both the dad and the daughter are good peoples to be around and shoot with both locally and at bigger matches out of state! You should be proud sir!

I wish I had a range like that near me.

Just to see how I would do. I bet she could out shoot me, she has practice, I don't

Great job Dad. My little one turn 2 in a month, still years away.

Kudos to her dad, that's awesome stuff!

Great Job Katie and Great Job Dad and Mom.

I am the father of 2 girls 4 and 6. They have started learning safety and shooting Bow and Arrow. As I see their maturity level
grow I will add more. If they take a liking to it I hope to teach them until I can know longer impart knowledge onto them and then
find the next level. I hope to have one or both become as interested in the shooting sports as me.

Again Great Job to all.

I've seen her shoot , but have not shot against her yet . I'm sure she'll whoop my ass like everyone else does .

I have not shot since it got cold, and not much before that this year really . I'm slackin' .

Chad and family are good people and am glad to know him . Chad was also my CCW instructor many years ago as well .
