THE NEW STANDARD IN SHOOTING INSTRUCTION

Rate: $7,890 all inclusive 

Length: 3 days, 4 nights

This course is a pre-requisite for our Pro Hunter course and a perfect introduction to rifle shooting for the complete beginner, or the experienced hunter or shooter who wants a refresher and new techniques to apply to their upcoming hunt. After a classroom portion to review the groundwork of ballistics and rifle systems, we move to our “Zero Range” for instruction out to 600 yards. Every day you will progress to a different range location where you learn how to overcome all the challenges involved in hunting and shooting in the mountains. We will push the limits to your maximum ethical distance but concentrate on first round hits on realistic-sized wildlife targets. Our small class sizes allow for maximum individual attention, and shooters will complete the course with confidence in their ability to make a successful shot in nearly any circumstance. Price includes use of BRC precision firearms, estimated cost of ammunition, and all field equipment.

This is the next step for our Precision Hunter Course graduates who want to advance their shooting and hunting skills or prepare for a specific upcoming hunt. This course covers the aspects of hunting which includes observation, concealment and movement skills. You will learn target acquisition, engaging moving targets, steep angles, and extend your maximum shooting distance, while becoming proficient in reading your environment. You will be faced with challenging shoot/don’t shoot scenarios enabling you with the ability to make the critical and quick decision between making a successful ethical shot and making a mistake. If you have not taken our Precision Hunter Course, but have completed a comparable training elsewhere, you may be eligible to upgrade to this course. Our instructors will make the decision prior to the deposit being paid. Shooters may bring their own personal rifles and optics system or rent a rifle and purchase ammunition at the ranch.
