Shoot with confidence! EatWild is offering a one day live fire shooting workshop at The Port Coquitlam & District Hunting & Fishing Club. This will be a hands on and practical opportunity for you build your knowledge and skills to become a confident shooter. The EatWild Mentors will work with participants to first develop basic shooting skills with 22 caliber rifles. Once participants have built the confidence and basic skills with small caliber rifles, the participants will then have the opportunity to practice shooting with various high powered hunting rifles.

The EatWild Shooting Skills Workshop includes:

  • One-on-one mentoring and coaching from professional firearms instructors
  • The opportunity to shoot various calibers of rifles to find out what caliber is right for you
  • A supportive learning environment with other new hunters
  • Guidance for firearm safety and range etiquette
  • Field shooting exercises
  • Tips on safe transport and storage of firearms
  • Guidance on gun care and cleaning
  • Access to firearms

The Shooting Skills Workshop is designed for new hunters with limited experience with shooting. Our goal is for the participants to develop the basic skills to be able to ethically harvest game. Our program is designed to help develop the fundamental principles and steps to become confident, ethical and safe shooters. Professional Firearms Instructor, Marshall Lowen, will be leading the workshop. Marshall been providing firearms training to new hunters , RCMP, Canadian Military, and Canada Border Services for over 40 years.

What folks are saying about the EatWild Shooting Skills Workshop

"I come from a family of hunters but was never shown how to hunt. So I’ve had the interest for a long time. The EatWild crew is fantastic at explaining things and walking you through each step so you understand how to properly handle and shoot a rifle SAFELY. They also take the time to explain the difference between an ethical and unethical hunt. Being able to fire different calibres really gives you a good feel for what type of rifle best suites you. I hope to see them in the future for other courses. They provide a very friendly, social and educational experience. I would recommend this course to anyone who has no or very little rifle experience."

"I attended the Shooting Skills workshop with the intention of selecting a rifle to purchase. My friends had strongly recommended the 30-06 and I was so glad to try one at the range as I realized I was not comfortable with that selection. Instead, Dylan had us try the .243 and .308 and I found the .308 was the rifle I wanted to have. Having the ability to try out the firearms from the various positions really gave me a chance to see what I could handle and what would be best for me when trying to hunt ethically vs shooting at targets."
