Skeet Shooting & Shenanigans

New Paltz
,
Multiple
Ladies who lunch and shoot skeet! Join us for a 1490 workshop lunch and an afternoon of skeet shooting with private instruction (and optional overnight!).

In skeet shooting, clay targets fly unexpectedly across the sky—and you have a split second to decide, act, and follow through. Sounds a lot like life, right?

It’s a powerful lesson in focus, decisiveness, and confidence under pressure. We'll have private instruction for the afternoon and all our equipment, ammo, safety gear, and targets will be provided. If you've never held a gun, or you're an old pro — this event will be equally thrilling and instructive.

WANNA HEAR SOMETHING COOL?"Skeet" is from the Scandinavian word "Skyte" and replaced the original name for this sport, "Shooting Round the Clock", after a contest was held to rename it from the mouthful it was. The winner was a woman — Gertrude Hurlbutt ...and the rest is history!

"Project 1490 is the cool, bohemian sister of Chief. And the Chief sister is always like, ‘Oh 1490, when will you grow up!?’ But 1490 just smiles and goes back to her chainsaw ice sculpture, because not everyone is meant for Badassery, and that’s okay. To each her own."

"If you’re not a fan of typical, inauthentic networking; want to meet amazing women and more guidance on your career path; all while connecting in nature — this is a must!"
