What the Students Say
“I'm an experienced long-range shooter in Australia so I was missing the fun and social side of shooting until I found PrepYou.Eu and The Sunday Session. I have developed my pistol shooting over the past 12 months and have my own Glock in the Gun Hotel and try to never miss a session if I'm in Sofia!”
Ray W - Australia
“I visit PrepYou.Eu from the Netherlands for a long-weekend about every 3 months for a set of Private Lessons. I always join the Sunday Session before I head home. I have made some good international friends on the range and it's a great way to start the new week! ”
Max - Netherlands
