New Year's Shooting Resolutions

As we begin the 2009 year, just about everywhere you look there are New Year's Resolutions flying around. Most are unattainable, some are frivolous, and others are just downright silly! But here are a couple that might be of interest to you, the airgun shooter:

1. Shoot more, and shoot more often!

2. Pick one of the guns you've had in the closet for too long and re-acquaint yourself with it.

3. Start a local airgun shooting club. It doesn't take that much to enjoy yourself with friends.

4. Introduce a child to the joys of the shooting sports.

5. Learn all you can about one of your guns....what ammo it likes the best, how it likes to be held, where it hits at what range....learn that one gun intimately.

6. Try an airgun powerplant that you haven't already tried (CO2, spring-piston, pre-charged pneumatic, or self-contained pumper). Don't limit yourself to just one kind.

7. Attend one of the airgun shows this year. You'll find lots of folks eager to talk to you about airguns.

8. Enter at least one competition this year, just for the heck of it. You might enjoy it in spite of yourself!

9. If you hunt, take a child hunting. Introduce them to the great outdoors.

10. Join one of the many airgun forums online and learn all you can about airguns. Then spread the word!
