The Shoot Like A Girl® Home of the Brave Tour is making its first scheduled stop of the year at Bass Pro Shops in Fort Myers, Florida for a free interactive event that introduces women to the shooting sports in a fun, safe and comfortable atmosphere. Shoot Like A Girl travels to cities all across the country, bringing a state-of-the-art mobile range, certified female instructors and some of the finest gear in the industry to help make the shooting sports more accessible to women. With gun sales at an all-time high, resources for new shooters are in even higher demand. Shoot Like A Girl fills the gap by bringing these valuable resources directly to customers.
