    But if you REALLY want to get your wife into shooting...

    TELL HER YOU SLEPT WITH HER SISTER!
    You would be her first and only target!

    I met a girl at the hunting course, she got my phone number from the instructor and started sending me dirty pictures. If I wasn't already taken she might be a keeper! lol

    The biggest mistakes I've seen guys make are:

    1. Inadequate ear-pro
    2. Guns that hurt.

    Starting someone off with slugs isn't going to make them enjoy shooting.

    Took a girl out shooting one time and handed her the .22LR, she got upset because I gave her the sissy gun instead of the 12 gauge

    She handled the 12 like a pro

    Made me stop and think lol.

    Girl tells you she's a virgin yet starts pulling moves that you only see in porn really makes you wonder

    I agree with TV. The biggest dampner is often the noise. Double up on the hearing protection or give her very good muffs. Plugs do no protect against the concussion of high pressure rounds.

    At all cost, avoid the shooter with .223 or more with a full muzzle break.

    One of the principles of motivation when teaching new people anything is to go for quick and easy wins. Seven yards or shorter is a good distance with a large target. I like the targets that show hits with a colourful spash like the "Shoot and See" or Dirty Bird types.

    If possible, end with a coffee with other shooters so that the chatter can reinforce the fun you've just had.

    Everything else has been well covered already.
