Get Outdoors Rookie Camp: Ben Avery shooting range

Jun 10, 2016, 4:15 PM

This episode of Get Outdoors Rookie Camp stars Erin Maloney and Paige Dimakos from Arizona Sports 98.7FM and ArizonaSports.com.

I was walking down the hall here at the station and I hear someone scream “I want to be on a Rookie Camp!”

That was right before my face hit the carpet. Man, Erin can tackle!

Okay…maybe I took some creative license with that one. However, she did approach me to discuss Rookie Camp options for her and her Arizona Sports pal Paige.

BOTH of them had never fired shotguns…ever!

Well, we will have none of that. Straight to the clay shooting range with both of them!

We headed up north to Ben Avery Shooting Facility, ran through a firearm safety lesson and started launching clays!

Watch and see how the girls did. Enjoy.

‘Murica!
