Abstract
The 4-H shooting sports program provides a dynamic way to involve hard-to-reach youth as demonstrated through long term programming and summative evaluation results. Four-H shooting sports is an under-used hook for involving youth in 4-H. Involvement in shooting sports can provide the skills that lead to many other 4-H opportunities, in many cases, changing the lives of youth in positive ways and opening doors to vocational or avocational opportunities. Four-H shooting sports is truly an activity for a lifetime. The 4-H shooting sports program has the potential to attract a new audience of 4-H members and adult volunteers.
