I am fortunate to be the head shooting sports coach for NubAbility Outdoors. I spent the last week In DuQuoin, Illinois at the NubAbility Athletics All-Sports camp. On Thursday we had NubAbility Outdoors Day where we introduced over 50 campers to shotgun and air rifle. Due to our location and timing constraints, we could not do live shotgun. Thankfully, with the help of GAIM Immersive Technology Group, the campers could experience shotguns through VR.

We also let the campers wear our Team USA vest, glasses and hold up our shotguns so they could feel the weight of a competition shotgun. You can read all about the first NubAbility Outdoors shooting sports camp in January in Texas in the upcoming summer issue of Lady.

NubAbility Outdoors is a small non-profit for children with limb differences and/or missing limbs that take the children on hunting, fishing, and shooting sports adventures. The coaches are also limb different (like myself) so the campers can learn from someone just like them. We will be hosting another camp in Texas in the Spring of 2024. If you would like to sponsor a camper or some gear please reach out to me and I can give you more info.

The GAIM system will be showing up on our Christmas gift guide in the 2023 Winter issue and you can read a review in the current issue of ClayShootingUSA. It is definitely a great training tool for the serious shooting enthusiast. I am not going to lie...watching the kids with the VR and listening to their commentary while using the GAIM was definitely comedic relief.

If you would like to learn more about NubAbility Outdoors (you can also inquire with me) or GAIM please go to their respective sites:
