Here are a few pics of the brown bear I shot last in Alaska. He was about a 9 ft bear. The shot was 400 yards with a 30-degree uphill angle. I only felt confident to take the shot because of my FTW training!

I had a great time at the last SAAM class & am looking forward to next year. I’m sending a belated update on the nilgai hunt that I had the week following the class. It was a great success. Please pass on my thanks to the team. I dropped a nilgai cow at 170 yds very early on the first evening of hunting. Shot through the heart. I decided to hunt a waterbuck doe the next day. Dropped at 230 yds, also through the heart. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
Hunting wolves in Alberta in March 2023 in the winter requires good equipment and attire, preparation, and an experienced guide who knows the area, such as Troy Foster of Northern Alberta Outfitters. I got this wolf on a frozen lake area from a well-concealed blind with bait that attracted ravens and eagles. I had this beautiful blue/silver charcoal wolf come by giving me an opportunity to take a successful shot at 200 yards. Like you learn at SAAM, the first shot counts, particularly with a wolf.
A very special thanks to all the FTW SAAM team members, but ESPECIALLY AJ for helping me pursue what I love. Having limited use of my arms and hands, and walking on my knees makes aspects of everyday life that most people take for granted, difficult. Never in my life did I think I would be able to hunt and shoot long guns, but with the EXPERTS at FTWSAAM, I was shooting steel at 1,000 yards on day 1. Great team, great guys, and even better results.
Thanks to FTW SAAM, DSC & Wicked River Outfitters for the Amazing Adventure.
