My church started a new men's program (three years ago it was new anyway). The concept is if you mountain bike, golf, fish, run, or shoot do it with other men in the church. I started the shooting group and had some funny looks and tons of jokes when things first kicked off. Now it's one of the most popular activities men get involved in. We have over 120 people that get the emails to shoot with us and typically have 12-20 shooters on our range days. I have had cleaning events, safety events, and had a bring your spouse event to help the ladies see her husband is not crazy and that there are lots of men who shoot.I seem to be the go to guy when someone buys their son a .22 or thier wife wants to learn to shoot. Anybody considering starting a group in your church I say go for it. I can help you with anything you need. I have the waiver forms, safety info and even Power Points that helped me teach safety to the new shooters. My church is a very large well known church in the Franklin area and I'm sure I can have the pastor or one of the staff talk to your pastor or men's group leader if there is some trepidation on the subject.
It feels a little like that movie Fight Club. You walk through the halls and seems guy with is sweet little kids and you know he has an AK or M4 that nobody would suspect.
