It sounds fun, but I simply go out and shoot. I've the advantage of being able to shoot whenever, wherever, as far as I want. But I'm sure you'll have fun and learn some basic skills. Everything stems from the basics, and most shooters can benefit from what experienced individuals can teach.

I've been to two Appleseed Project shoots. One back in June and I was up at the one at Waterman where there were 260 people registered.

I think you'll really enjoy it.

Here's a link to some pictures from the one I went to in June.

Here's some video from the one from last weekend. http://www.youtube.com/afp#p/u/7/pCU8lei7s2g

My husband hunted before he entered the Army and then learned the way they do it. He taught me the same, especially shooting from different positions.

We also practice shooting the bow from different positions, especially kneeling.
