The Sparta Rod & Gun Club Youth Shooting Program begins on May 7, 2014. Registration is April 23d from 5 to 6 pm in the lower club house. Participants are limited to youths 12 to 17 in age who have completed the Hunter Safety program.
The shooting program lasts for 5 weeks and the cost is $15.00 per shooter for the program.
The club sponsored a youth deer hunt on October 6-7, 2012. Kegan Rodgers of Sparta was selected by the club as this year's youth hunter. He, along with John Giraud successfully harvested a nice doe on Sunday afternoon after spending the better part of two days in a blind. Kegan spotted the deer late Sunday afternoon and took it down with a single shot. This shot was the culmination of several weeks of shooting practice with John Giraud. Special thanks go to John for making this event a rousing success. His willingness to work through the challenging paperwork, coordinating with DNR personnel, and working with Kegan set the conditions for a successful hunt. Additional thanks go to Tom's Custom Meats for donating the processing. The club received a thank you letter from Kegan Rodgers along with pictures. Kegan's letter reads as follows:
“Thank you for the great youth hunt weekend. I had a lot of fun hunting for the 2 days with John my mentor and now great friend. This was my first time hunting and was very lucky to have seen the deer when we did. It was almost time to be done. Then she showed herself and I took the shot. I just can’t stop smiling. Thank you for letting me take part in this mentor program for the youth. Not only has this made me a hunter it also has given me a new friend. I have learned so much from John. Thank you!”
