The application will include instructions for how to apply.

I will never leave you alone on the firing line. As your instructor you can expect me to kind, patient and mindful of your comfort to maximize your instruction experience.

8. After I complete a course through Shooting With Sherry, will I be prepared to go to the range on my own?
Every shooter is different and the results depend on the individual. Any shooter that does not feel comfortable going to the range after a course is completed should request additional instruction for continued skill improvement. The more range instruction a student receives, the greater the confidence and skill an individual will experience.

Although I make every effort to provide individuals with instruction, scheduling conflicts may impede my ability to provide you with instruction at the date, time and location of which you request. Due to this, instruction is not guaranteed for every request. Additionally, I reserve the right to refuse instruction to any individual who does not follow safety protocols, or at my discretion, appears to be, or has the potential to be, a danger to self or others.
