    While also not revolver specific, these 2(especially "The Flinchies") from Chuck Pressburg may be beneficial.

    Thanks. I reviewed it, but it is an example of the problem I'm finding.

    As soon as my female, non-enthusiest friend starts this video and sees big men running & gunning in the dark yelling "Go Go Go!" she's not watching anymore.

    Later in this kind of video the instructor uses too many words / gun jargon the lay person doesn't understand yet.

    I think there is alot of opportunity for female instructors to teach other women & make a little coin. Plenty of women need "How to use a handgun 101" taught by another woman.

    I'll look for this specifically and if I can find such videos I'll post them here.

    Most women need to start there first time actually firing a handgun like this for a good foundation.

    Watch the newbie, Jordan, (who is very attractive btw) jump at about 2:20 at the first shot!

    Taking someone at this level (ZERO) and turning them into a proficient shooter would be satisfying. I've done this with my wife and love watching her shoot well because everything she knows about it came from me and it's validating.

    But that takes time. It would be great to have some videos I could have potential new shooters watch to cover some of the 101 stuff. So when I explain it & show them it's not their first time seeing it.

    I don't know if they have any specific revolver shooting 101 videos, but here are three names I'd look for videos with.

    Julie Golob

    Kay Clark-Miculek

    Lena Miculek

    You should be able to find something lady friendly and on message from them. Hope this helps!

    Start with the "Shooting USA Classic ProTip: Jerry Miculek - Revolver Grip", then look at the wide variety of revolver vids on Jerry's channel "Jerry Miculek - Pro Shooter", look at Mas Ayoob's videos on revolver skills.. go from there...

    Revolvers are certainly a different animal, but some naturally take to them. I can shoot anything that has sights and a trigger, but my wife shoots our revolvers very well...better than any slide gun, and she prefers a revolver. She just simply took to them, like a duck to water.
    Good night Chesty...wherever you are.
