Talking Lead 429 – The Red Letter Project: Maddy “Dawg” Scholar

On this episode of the Talking Lead Podcast our special guest is Maddy Scholar, “Maddy Dawg”. Maddy is a competition shooter, a bull rider, a sky diver, a wing-walker, a certified diver and a MMA fighter. We get to learn a lot about Maddy in our “New Guy” segment. Maddy is also the owner of “Maddy Dawg Training” a firearms and defensive training company. The dramatic rise in new firearm owners over the past five years is at an all time high and the demand for learning how to use those firearms is also on the rise, especially from the female demographic. To meet the demand for an all female training setting Maddy has created “The Red Letter Project”.

The Red Letter Project was designed to be one of the first of its kind, a women’s retreat that encompasses much more than just shooting, to include medical, hand to hand, vehicle application, and more. Built on Christian values, the Red Letter Project got its name from the words Jesus spoke in the Bible, which are typically written in red.  With a host of instructors, the project welcomes more women to the shooting community who are like minded and seeking training to become more capable and proficient.
