In all this discussion of the Great British Weather, range availability,
courses of fire, prize money, sponsorship, TV coverage etc we do seem to
have overlooked, perhaps more fundamental, reasons why people do not
come into shooting - or do not stay.

Since the discussion seems to be centering round how to attract people
into the sport, I'd like to expand a bit on the suggestion from a previous
correspondent about the use of airguns. Today's airguns are a far cry
from the toy-like guns you may remember

Big prize money will get more NON shooters interested in taking up the
sport. But who will put up the money, and it will need to be for a few
years to get the numbers higher. It will get little TV etc in meantime.
A Negative thought, even our trade

The question is, where is the money going to come from?
The only place it can come from. Entry fees and club sub's.
Unless you can get a few sponsors on board.

down to the bottom line, the simple fact of the matter is that
we need to attract more People into the Sport. The problem
with this as I see it is, a) Many clubs (especially those
shooting full bore rifles

I'm not too sure about this. Yes, bigger prize
funds will probably see more People shooting but is this
the way we want to see the sport going? I don't think I
want to see this happening. I want shooting to be about
shooting *not*
