Youth learn marksmanship, the safe and responsible use of firearms and the principles of hunting.&nbsp; The activities of the project with the support of caring adult leaders provide young people with opportunities to develop life skills, self-worth, and conservation ethics. We promote the highest standards of safety, sportsmanship, ethical behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The shooting disciplines include archery, muzzle loading, pistol, rifle, shotgun and hunting. Each discipline is taught by a National or State 4-H Certified Leader.&nbsp;4-H members have opportunities to test their shooting, hunting, and sportsmanship skills in county, regional, state, and national competitions. In fact, they could ultimately set Olympic competition or motion science as their goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n<section  class=\"wsu-section\"  >\r\n        \n\n<p>Please note there are age restrictions on this project area:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Youth must be 8 by October 1st of the current 4-H year to be eligible for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Competitive situations, such as livestock shows or sales<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrollment in large animal projects, including Beef, Dairy, Goat, Horse, Sheep, Alpaca\/Llama, and Swine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Enrollment in shooting sports projects<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrollment in projects using motorized vehicles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrollment in food preservation projects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloverbuds (4-H youth ages 5-7) may participate in a number of age-appropriate activities, though they may not participate in competitive events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have questions about eligibility, please contact your county 4-H coordinator.<\/p>\n\n    <\/section>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Objectives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Youth will:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Practice safe and responsible use of their bow and arrow or their chosen firearm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learn the operations and functions and maintenance of shooting sports equipment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Understand the principles of ethical hunting and wildlife management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Develop marksmanship, safety skills, and responsible behavior when handling, using, and storing their shooting sports equipment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/03\/4-H-Archery.jpg\" alt=\"Three youth with compound bows aimed off-camera\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4-H Shooting Sports Curriculum<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Available in the Extension office or online.<\/p>\n\n\n<section  class=\"wsu-section\"  >\r\n        \n\n<p>Shooting&nbsp;Sports leaders receive project curriculum after completing required training.&nbsp; All Shooting Sports projects <em>require<\/em> supervision of a certified 4-H Shooting Sports Instructor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Training is offered 2-3 times per year.&nbsp; Contact the State 4-H Office, WSU Spokane, 509-358-7960, for training dates.<\/p>\n\n    <\/section>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Washington 4-H Records, Forms, and Guides<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For youth members<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.extension.wsu.edu\/4h-archery-record\">C1110E &#8211; 4-H Archery Record<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.extension.wsu.edu\/4h-shooting-sports-record-book\">C1111E &#8211; 4-H Shooting Sports Record Book<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/09\/Shooting-Sports-Waiver.pdf\">Washington State 4-H Shooting Sports Waiver Form (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/09\/Shooting-Sports-HealthRelease.pdf\">Washington State 4-H Shooting Sports Consent of Parents Medical Care and Treatment Form (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For adult helpers and club leaders<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.extension.wsu.edu\/starting-a-4h-shooting-sports-project-in-your-county\">C1119E &#8211; Starting a 4-H Shooting Sports Project<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.extension.wsu.edu\/washington-4h-archery-project\">EM4426E &#8211; Washington 4-H Archery<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.extension.wsu.edu\/big-game-from-hunt-to-home\">PNW517 &#8211; Big Game from Hunt to Home<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2014\/09\/Shooting-Sports-Waiver.pdf\">Washington State 4-H Shooting Sports Waiver Form (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/4h\/projects\/shooting-sports\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button  wsu-button--style-action\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tState Shooting Sports Project Area Resources\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/4h\/events\/category\/shooting-sports\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button  wsu-button--style-action\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tState Shooting Sports Events\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"198\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Shooting-Sports-792x198.png\" alt=\"At left, a target with arrows in it.
