New to shooting, want to start practicing

[Arpit Deswal]

I am enrolled in a higher educational institution, and we do not have any gun ranges nearby. I shot for the first time during NCC camp, and according to the instructor, did exceptionally well for a first time shooter. But as the competition was for IGC level, I didn't qualify.

Now I am not a part of the organization anymore but wanted to practice target shooting. I was much interested in trap and skeet, but according to my research they are out of scope due to license registrations.

I am also interested in live fire categories.

The main thing where I need the guidance is, how and where should I start from, my residence is in Delhi, so I want suggestions for the gun ranges/clubs there. What category to start in. And what should be the optimal path to achieve trap shooting license.

Thanks

Hi, Arpit

its great that you are interested in trap and skeet shooting, try to visit a shooting range and talk to the coaches there they will guide you about the process in a better way, you can google for the shooting ranges near to your place of residence.
