Gary, I agree with what you said from an attraction standpoint. I also believe there is value in the youth shoot, it really did produce some excitement. To your other point I am a big believer that the biggest influence in bringing young shooters into the game is through the local youth sportsmen clubs whether they are school affiliated, 4-H or wherever. It seems to me that once young people see others shooting they are likely to attract others, and in many cases youngsters that have had no exposure to guns. I’m not sure how we effect this effort and that deserves ideas and discussion.
