We took our course Saturday and she almost out shot me with a 236 vs my 240. Needless to say, I'm darn proud of her for going through all the anxiety, etc. All you husbands and boyfriends need to talk your woman into getting a CHL.
I took my wife out to the range for 3 months every weekend and shot over a 1000 rounds to get her ready. I should of never done that. She passed her test with a 100% score and out shot most of the men there.
Now she wants to start shooting rifles. GAWD, what have I done?

If she needed that experience to give her confidence during the class, it was worth it. Even if she didn't, you both had a lot of fun together, so it was still worth it.

Nothing beats spending the day on the shooting range with your wife. My wife started shooting awhile back and it just brings a tear to the eye to hear her say "so, we going shooting today?" Add that sentence to a day that already included a round of golf with her, a gun show the day before with her, and a bar-b-q dinner...GOOD GOD, I'm in love all over!

Ditto. She Who Must Be Obeyed started as something to do with me. Then she discovered she liked it quite a bit. Its not something she does all the time but its a great stress reliever for her.

I really believe the silouets are the same. I think the difference is how wide the white paper is on the outside.

Good point. I sent an email to targetbarn to confirm if the sihloettes are the same size.

Wow. Really quick response from Targetbarn:
The silhouette is the same; just the amount of bordrer is different.
Good call.
