the way she simplified her gazilion hours of training to a 5 simple conclusions/ instructions. I think she might be the best teacher outhere

What an amazing instructor and person Lena is. She makes her students have confidence in themselves.

That was absolutely the best gun grip and stance lesson I have seen, including all the ones done by your dad. Everyone always leaves componets out. You covered them all! Great job!

Him saying "thank you for helping me get over that fear" ugh all the feels! So important to have a good teacher in life! This short video has helped me tremendously.

I am sharing this with my daughter. She is learning to shoot now.

I've watched numerous beginner shooting videos on youtube, and this is one of the easiest to understand.

I have been watching a lot of videos aimed at first time shooters. Hands down best one I have seen so far. She is an excellent instructor.

Every video I’ve watched of Lena is simply the best. Such a gift! Thank you Lena & Jerry for everything, I look forward to actually plinking w/ you one day.

I think she is amazing! What a great teacher! She explains everything so well and breaks the steps of shooting into easily understandable steps that a beginner or anyone can understand!

Thanks Lena I’ve learned more from you in two minutes with left hand position, stance & arm position in this video than I have from any instructor in the last several years

Simple, short, and very effective video for a new shooter. Covers all the essentials in a clear, well demonstrated quick start guide. Sharing this with my wife as she is brand new to the sport. She can learn more in this 5 min clip than I could teach her in an hour.

This was the most informative video I watched in 6min related to shooting technique THANK YOU

There is always something of value to learn from Lena (and her dad!) Lena also demonstrates what a patient -sober-kind soul she has which is a fundamental requirement for being such an excellent shooting instructor. Thank you Sportsman’s Warehouse for sponsoring this excellent video.

Oh my gosh!! What a lucky guy to get a personal lesson from Lena Miculek!! I can't wait for my Rose to come in!!

I always learn some nuances for better marksmanship from Lena and she makes it fun too. Shoutout to the Miculek family; you all teach as good as you shoot!

This is the best instruction I have ever seen on shooting. First video I have seen of Lena (obviously know her dad), but she is fantastic!

Lord all mighty, Miss Miculak I just can't believe how easy your instruction is to fallow, how much each tip helps!!!! My niece was so hard to instruct, had her just watch your video, and she calls and says now she can grip her pistol just fine and it don't hurt!! You and your Dad are such great instructors!! God bless you and yours have a HAPPY NEW YEAR AND A BELATED MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

So great that you took time out to work with him Lena! You are a rockstar!!! 🙏👍❤️

That was great instructing! I've been shooting for quite a few years and watching this video is proof of how it never hurts to get a refresher. We pick up bad habits along the way sometimes, and for me, this exposed some. So thanks!

In love with Lena!!!! Im an avid shooter and this is by far that was the best training video for someone new to the shooting world!! Thank you guys and awesome Lena!!!!!

This video ROCKS! For anyone new to anything, simple is the key and she breaks it down to as simple as it can be. She broke it down to parade rest. Awesome video!

I was watching these videos to see “professionals” trying to teach people improper pistol grip and stance but it’s a breath of fresh air to know some people still know what their doing. 😎 well done Lena 👍

been teaching for about 30 years... Start w/ stance. "Stand like you're going to punch a bag". Then posture: slightly forward. Arms, etc. Grip, etc. Sight picture, etc. THEN... teach the gun is going to do 4 things that the shooter can't stop: A very loud noise, muzzle flash, muzzle jump, and recoil (all at once). The shooter has to let them all occur, they can only correct once the shot is fired. That takes time. Also, shooting fatigue is a real thing for most people and 50 rounds is about it. I start off with a .22 rimfire auto, let them watch me shoot first, then their turn. Then up to a .38 revolver, then a 9mm auto, etc. No rush. No set # of rounds. Just be very aware of all things involved including possible intimidation.

Thank you for this video. I believe this video may be the best instructional in re handgun shooting basics that I have ever seen.

I learned more in a few minutes than I have in hours of other training videos lol. She is amazing!

Reminds me of my daughter, who ran 100K for the US team. Full of beans and VERY focused on her skills and consistency. Just love watching Lena do her thing.

Compact and extremely instructive. Great video Lena.

2nd comment because i can't shutup: What a great bedside manner! I imagine that among those new to weapons there are a good percentage who are a little- or a lot- nervous about it (which is totally relatable) so, teaching them not only in an assertive and capable way, but also disarming and even FUN way, must really make a difference to them for their first experience. Good show again, Lena 👌🏾

Excellent Teacher!!! Good job Lena!!!

This is probably the best I've ever heard the basics explained to a simpleton like me. My dad could shoot, but Oklahoma learnin' is more of a feel. I'm right handed, but left eye dominant. Also my eyesight isn't the greatest. Love this video

Lena seems like a great teacher. and I have already seen her shoot, and watched her reload a shotgun with her dad. She's fast, sheesh!

Both Lena and this video are gifts to the community; thank you!

Awesome Sauce!!!! This is perfect for any new shooter! As for the shirt thing...I have to say that there's no competition! Lena wears it better!

Lena is an AMAZING instructor and all around AWESOME person!! 😃👍

A wonderful instructor. The most succinct training I have seen in person or on video. Well done and thank you.

Omgggggg now im excited to go learn! Such a great teacher, best video I've seen so far on this lesson!!!

Lena is awesome! Great video! Always something to learn!

Thank u,you teach a lot better,then the guy that tried to teach me ,he had me so scared to pull the trigger that I didn't shoot at all!!You make it a lot less scary!

She did a great job, focus on the basics and the results will show up in practice.. Awesome..

I really like the way you explain and demonstrate things!

I am always amazed at the patience and determination this young lady has at wanting her pupil to perform at their best !!

Certainly making her father proud. Excellent video.

Great job great info great instructor thanks for sharing!

I love this, I like having a reasonable, logical approach tho the things I do and be able to explain processes with more than just “because I said so” Definitely gonna keep most of these explanations, I just sent this video to my wife, we’re getting her spun up on shooting. Great work!

LENA...WOW.. You just taught me something. I thank you so much... What eye is looking at the target. How to stand... And the teaching moment. How to position your thumbs. thank you. I'm going to watch this over and over. Send it to all of the people I know.. Thank you Lena. This is really amazing instruction on how to handle and shot a 9mm... Thank you 🎖️🏆

You are great Lena. Im a beginner with no help and you help me a lot....you cant imagine how much you help me. Thanks a lot Lena

Wow - one of the best beginners instruction-videos i´ve ever seen... i think you´ve nailed it !

I just stumbled onto this video, I am in the process of getting my license etc. in RSA, and now I'm now eager to get back on the range to test and tweak my stance, grip and positioning. really useful 6min video!

Great video, thanks for sharing.

Going shooting for the first time in my life tomorrow with a buddy and this video has already given me confidence! Will definitely use these tips and hopefully hit my mark as well as your student did here.

Wow, i do several time as an amateur shooting instructor at my club, i watch some video to learn basic how to shoot, but this video give me much more info than others. Thanks lena u're one of the best

That elbows tip is fantastic, haven't seen that discussed anywhere before.

Great lesson!

This is exactly the information I needed to know before I go to the first range meeting with my new gun. Thank you!

Shooting with Lena is even better than an early call from your FFL.

My boyfriend is taking me shooting for the first time. He's going to have his dad help and he's a retired state patrol. I really don't want to look incompetent. Thank you for this

This was a very informative video.

Amazing tips packed into 6 minutes. thanks Lena.

Excellent instruction

Lena you are a great instructor! Thanks lady

Lena THANK YOU. I'm training up my Family and will use this as a starting point before our first range day! 😀

Everyone deserves an instructor as good as Lena! ☺️
