I'm kinda perturbed there aren't more of them, or more youth participating in them. I still have ribbons I won from way back in jr. high school through our county 4-H shooting team. The skills, safety, and responsibility I learned doing that was far and above anything I learned in my academic endeavors down at our little consolodated school district.

Another plus for youth competitions- is if young shooters are taught to be good stewards to the sport, then I feel those young men and women won't be so inclined to be embarrassments or liabilities to the sport when they are grown.
