Questions to Ask Your Shooting Instructor
Questions to ask ANY Shooting Instructor before you sign up for a lesson:
When you talk with an Instructor about the possibility of taking lessons—with shooting “improvement” as your mutual goal—consider asking the following questions:
-
Have you worked with other students who are at my skill level?
-
Will you cover eye dominance and then do an equipment review?
-
Will I learn why I am inconsistent?
-
Specifically, will I learn how to be more consistent?
- Yes, of course, I want to break targets, but it is far more important to me that I learn “how,” the actual “process” of breaking targets. Do you teach the fundamentals, the basics? Can you share with me a few examples?

-
Will you teach me how to “self-correct” after a miss so I can do this on my own, after my lesson?
-
Will you teach me how to duplicate my successful shot, so I can do this on my own, after my lesson?
-
At the end of my lesson, will you provide a written practice plan so I will know what, and what not to do, after I leave?
