My wife has hers, my mother has hers, and I have a lady cousin in Midland who has hers...

My aunt will be going through the next class I offer in her area...that's four within the family without thinking too hard about it.

We have several women who shoot with us in the various IDPA groups around Houston, and all (to my knowledge) have their CHL's and carry most, if not all the time.

She'll be in good company.

Yikes, she usually out shoots me at the range with everything but a shotgun.
Same as above. My wife has fired a perfect score on her CHL requal TWICE!

My CHL instructor was female. It was one of the best classes Ive ever taken. She is also the founder and president of a womens shooting club in Austin. When we did our range qualifying it was the night of their club meet and there were at least 25 women there shooting.

Cal, my wife just left the house about 10 minutes ago with a Kahr CW9 strapped to her right hip in an OWB holster, and a spare mag carrier on her left hip. Couldn't tell she was carrying at all. And she carries every single day.

Julianna Crowder right?? :)

I have my CHL and Ido everything in my power to get ladies at least the opportunity to shoot and if they desire the instruction they need to improve their shooting skills.

Like JustMe, I enjoy teaching other women as much as I enjoy shooting myself!

My wife and I did our class together with Julianna. She's also an active member of her Austin area group and her sister is now active with the Ft Worth chapter as well.

There are 11 active chapters in Texas now and almost 300 paid members. She is expanding in Virginia and Colorado in the next few months with more states on the way.
I'm loving it!!

Wife has hers and carries as much as possible. Too bad there isn't a Girls with Guns chapter in the Kerrville area - I think she would really enjoy that.
