HerUpland Is Bringing a Wingshooting Clinic to Vinton This Year
HerUpland Logo from https://herupland.org/
There's a two-day wingshooting clinic happening this year in Vinton, up near the Nevada line in Sierra Valley country, and it's worth putting on your radar. HerUpland — a women-led 501(c)(3) focused on getting women and youth into upland hunting, bird dog training, and conservation — is running it as a hands-on immersion: real instruction on the line, field work with planted birds, and the kind of mentorship that turns a curious newcomer into someone who trusts their swing.
We've heard good things about how HerUpland runs their events — the kind of supportive, no-judgment atmosphere that makes a clinic like this less about scorekeeping and more about building competence and community in the field. That's a combination worth supporting, whether you're the one signing up or just spreading the word to someone who's been wanting an entry point.
