Daisy Inflatable Ranges Expand the Company's Shooting Education Reach
Inflatable Ranges
Daisy Outdoor Products' unique inflatable BB Gun Range allows the company to extend its shooting education reach. This year, ranges are scheduled to ship to store events and hunting and conservation events where seasoned instructors will work with young people to teach gun safety rules and marksmanship skills.
If you have volunteered to instruct at a Daisy Inflatable Range at an event, please view the video below which will walk you through the steps to set up, operate and re-pack the range. A printed set-up instruction booklet also accompanies each inflatable range. Click here to download a PDF of that booklet that you can print.
Daisy Partners with the National Wild Turkey Federation
NWTF's JAKES Take Aim program has an aggressive goal of tripling the annual number of youth shooting participants at JAKES (Juniors Acquiring Knowledge, Ethics and Sportsmanship) events - from 50,000 to 150,000 by 2014.
Beginning this year, JAKES Take Aim shooting trailers, equipped with inflatable BB gun ranges will be available to many NWTF state chapters. Daisy worked with NWTF to update the design and coordinate the manufacture of fifty inflatable ranges. Additionally Daisy will stock the shooting trailers with Daisy Grizzly youth airguns, PowerLine Model 953 pellet rifles, Winchester Air Rifles Model 1028 and 1029 as well as BBs, pellets and shooting glasses in order that NWTF leaders can instruct young and first time shooters at events all across the country.
"Daisy shows unmatched support, sponsorship and enthusiasm for the future of shooting sports by partnering with the NWTF to help us reach our goal of introducing more youth to shooting sports," said Mandy Harling, JAKES program coordinator.

Daisy Partners with Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation
Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation's SAFE initiative will introduce young and novice shooters to safe, responsible, enjoyable use of guns as well as educate newcomers about the hunter's role in conservation. SAFE stands for Shooting Access For Everyone.
Recognizing RMEF's dedication to introducing and involving youth in the shooting sports, conservation and the great outdoors, Daisy has partnered with the organization to coordinate their purchase of inflatable BB gun ranges for the SAFE program. Daisy will supply Daisy Grizzly airguns, BBs and shooting glasses to be used at events hosted by RMEF leadership.
