Internationally acclaimed shooting instructors Vicki and Gil Ash of Optimum Shotgun Performance (OSP) Shooting School have teamed up with American Shooting Centers (ASC) to host a series of Free Instructional Shooting Seminars in a new ASC program called “Come Out 2 Shoot”. Seminars will be held throughout the year. The goal of the program is to encourage recreational shooting and to improve the safety and proficiency of recreational shooters and hunters alike. Some seminars will include both lecture and live fire segments with OSP trained American Shooting Centers staff. Participants in the live fire part of the seminar will be randomly selected by a drawing. All participants will not be shooting in the live fire part of the seminars but the Sporting Clays Range will be open for those interested in practicing on their own. In order for us to give every attendee the personal service ASC is committed to give, space is limited and reservations are required, so sign up early. If there is a live fire part of this seminar with instruction participants must be 16 years of age or older. Individuals will be chosen from the audience. Eye protection is mandatory for participation in any live fire segments of any seminar and MUST BE FURNISHED BY THE ATTENDEE and ear protection will be provided by ASC. Here are some comments by attendees at previous CO2S Seminars….. “Since you did not have a pre conceived Agenda, you did a great job in engaging the audience’s participation to address what the audience wanted to hear. The hands on demonstrations were very informative since we are visual and seeing is believing. Thanks for the work you do and sharing it with us.” “I thought the Choke and Load seminar was excellent and provided a lot of very useful information. The way the information was presented made it easy to understand for any level of shooter. Gil and Vicki have the ability to make everyone feel relaxed and comfortable asking questions.” “At this point, Gil and Vickie are so far ahead of the learning curve in shotgun sports that I am just glad to have them teach me whatever they think is important at this time. However, I would be real interested in a Sporting Clays Target Reading seminar. I have the utmost respect for Gil and vicki as instructors. As a Level II NSCA instructor, I am always trying to better my skills in teaching others. What better way learn than from a Master Instructor.” “I attended the “Come Out 2 Shoot” program today and just got back to Waco and wanted to let you know what an impressive facility you folks have thank you for putting on the class. Gil and Vicki certainly do a fine job and although I did not get drawn for the shooting instruction I did learn quit a bit from watching the instructors work with the shooters. Thanks again and I will be buying the OSP books to see if I can get consistent as well.” “Saturday’s choke seminar put on by Gil and Vicki Ash was fantastic. I learned a lot and finally understand how a mod and IC can have the same effective pattern at 25 yards! Thank you for bringing the Houston shooting community this great resource.” “Thanks for convincing me to try your system. I had a full lesson immediately after the seminar from Grayson and today Taylor was kind of enough to give me a few pointers. Never before have I consistently hit crossing patterns like I am now. I give your system and your instructors full credit. Of special importance: I have found both Grayson and Taylor effective and patient instructors. I am excited to know they are affordable! I have always known of OSP’s reputation for quality lessons, but in the past I just could not justify the expense. Thank you for the seminar and thank your for making professional instruction available (to every one).” “What a great program! I went and shot after the seminar and my shooting improved 50% by using what I learned. I also had my daughter-in-law come the seminar and she was chosen to get one of the mini lessons and she enjoyed it as well. We then went to the rifle and pistol range and shot several weapons there. I do not think she is afraid of guns or to have them in her home now.” “Thank you very much for hosting the shooting seminar on Saturday morning. I feel like I learned a great deal. Afterward, I was able to pull the trigger a few times with Taylor and with just a few pointers from him I was immediately shooting better. I will definitely be scheduling a few sessions with him over the next couple weeks to polish my technique a bit more and build my confidence a bit. Saturday was well worth my time and I look forward to your future seminars.”
