Want to know what Gabby Franco’s shooting bag reveals? Shooting Sports USA offers the answer, in its monthly column called “Bag Check,” that features pro shooters’ items and often, reasons, for packing their range bags with the specified gear. Sure, we know that many of these shooters are sponsored, but seriously … there’s no way a pro athlete is going to agree to wear a terrible set of shooting glasses or make do with sub-par hearing protection.
A former Olympic shooter for Venezuela, and modern day instructor and pro competition shooter, Franco also reveals other aspects of her life in the column — such as her penchant for Flamenco and ceramic painting.
The author of Troubleshooting: Mastering Your Pistol Marksmanship (available in English and Spanish), Franco travels the country teaching co-ed shooting classes, and emphasizing the fact that knowledge is power — especially when it comes to shooting skills. Learn more about Franco’s schedule of classes at her website.
