Indiana 4-H Shooting Sports

Resources for Educators & Instructors

The objective of the 4-H Shooting Sports Education program is to teach safe use of archery and firearm equipment while helping youth grow and develop into happy, healthy, and contributing adults. More

Youth that are not regular 4-H members and parents must not be allowed to shoot before, during, or after a 4-H shoot as neither they, nor our certified instructors, would have Purdue's liability coverage in the event of an accident.
