I've been generally shooting firearms since I was 20 years old. Self taught, but I never was "good" I only got proficient because of this and another gun forum where I was lucky enough to learn from real experts.
I consider myself an amateur at best, but among all of my social groups I'm known as "the gun guy" for better or worse. This has put me in a position where I am often asked to teach new shooters or inexperienced shooters, especially women.
Over the last several years (and especially this year) I have trained tons of new shooters. I didn't know if I was very good or not to start, but the more I've done it the more I've realized I'm not shabby. Most shooters go from barely on paper to hitting the center ring on every shot at 7 yards within 30 minutes.
This is because of y'all. The lessons, the stories, the knowledge. I never would have had that without y'all. We're here to socialize, but we're also teaching people or introducing new people to the community.
First picture me at Texas Star in the tactical bay doing runs.
Second picture me hosting a shooting event for my singles group at Sendero Shooting sports. Half of them had never even held a firearm before
All other photos shooters who I am instructing. All first time shooters.
