Hunting for the home or hearth is an instinct bred deep in the human psyche
This three day intensive class is designed to develop confidence and competence in the critical event of any successful hunt-the all important shot, the first shot. It may be the only shot you get. The Hunter Preparation class is a unique course designed to strengthen your rifle skills for hunting applications. You will learn to hit quickly and accurately from field conditions, standing, kneeling, sitting and prone, no benchrest. Class exercises include deployment from sling, carry and field use, efficient movement, finding shooting positions quickly, operation under varying light and field conditions with an emphasis on building fact and accurate riflemanship. The critical element is to have an accurate rifle and to be thoroughly familiar with that rifle.
At the completion of the course you will receive a Certificate for completion of the National Rifle Association Basic Rifle course and with the skills as a practical rifleman to achieve first shot hits on appropriate targets, at unknown ranges, from field firing positions in the shortest time possible.
“A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercise, I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprize, and independance to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks.”
