Shoot Like A Girl®, a brand of SLG2, Inc, is bringing their 2023 15-Year Expansion tour to Bass Pro Shops® in Kodak, TN this weekend for an interactive event that introduces women and their families to shooting sports in a fun, safe and comfortable atmosphere. New and experienced shooters and their families are invited to stop by the Shoot Like A Girl trailer in front of Bass Pro Shops on Saturday, September 30 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, October 1 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Shoot Like A Girl introduces a variety of women, men and their families to safety and shooting sports each tour stop, creating unforgettable, lifesaving impacts. Shoot Like A Girl’s recent experience at Bass Pro Shops in Cary, NC had 140 participants inside, and at least twice as many outside.
“One guest had convinced her friend to come to the trailer with her, knowing that her friend didn’t want to participate. After talking to the team and observing the process, her friend decided to shoot the bow. With encouragement from the team and her friend, she reluctantly agreed to try the pistol,” said Karen Butler, SLG2, Inc President. “She was shocked and thrilled with the simplicity of the steps and hitting the target. She loved it, and then wanted to shoot the rifle. Not only did she operate the rifle well, but her shot group was amazing!”
What to Expect
Both new and experienced shooters are encouraged to stop by the Shoot Like A Girl mobile range event to learn more about ways to get involved in shooting sports. Inside the mobile range, using a military-grade firearm simulator which provides immediate recoil, impact and sound feedback, guests who are 18 years of age or older will gain confidence through handling and shooting a handgun and long gun at this immersive event. Guests will also be supported by archery coaches through a live archery demonstration, allowing attendees to experience archery firsthand and learn more about the sport through hands-on instruction.
Shoot Like A Girl strives to empower women through shooting sports demonstrations and events while opening a discussion surrounding sports and outdoors. Attendees are encouraged to bring their families and children to discuss and learn more about firearm safety in a comfortable and controlled environment. No experience is necessary to participate in this free event, and all equipment is provided to guests upon their arrival.
At the Shoot Like A Girl gun counter outside of the mobile range, visitors are welcome to compare a variety of disassembled firearms, including revolvers, semi-automatic pistols, shotguns and rifles. Additional products form corporate partners will be on display, including optics, conceal carry bags, holsters, TrueTimber camouflage, SABRE pepper spray products and much more.
