Hello FTW!!
Deb and I wanted to say Hi and Thank you for the SAAM Safari Course. Thanks to your course and training we had a very successful hunt last month with Jamy Traut Hunting Safaris in the Caprivi Strip. Deb got a monster 13′ Croc and a huge Hippo cow. I was able to get my first elephant, an “Own Use” bull. This will not be my last elephant, that’s for sure! Deb is ready to go back a get a hippo bull. The training we gained at the SAAM Safari course played perfectly into our real-world experiences. Running the different scenarios, we learned at SAAM over and over in our minds made the hunt so much more enjoyable. We are looking forward to another safari adventure in the near future. And of course we will see you all for a prep course. Thanks to everyone at FTW! We can’t thank you all enough for what you do there!
Take Care, Be Safe and God Bless all of you,
Don and Deb

Holt and I enjoyed our time with you at the 2-day SAAM Precision Course. As you know, this was a return trip for me, having brought my older son to your school many years ago. As we experienced on our previous trip, everything was perfect, and Holt excelled under the guidance and instruction of your staff. It’s amazing how down to earth and effective your instructors are! Holt soaked it all up and has taken a renewed interest in ballistics and shooting at longer ranges. Here are some pictures of our trip. One thing I noted in the pictures is how close and hands-on your staff was with him — they know how to teach!

“I’m thankful for the training I received in the multiple classes I’ve attended at FTW. The first class I attended as a novice hunter for the Safari prep course. I left confident in my ability to have not only successful hunts in Africa, but also the knowledge on what to expect in the field with my PH. I’ve also attended the precision prep course as well as the First Time Hunter course with my kids and I cannot recommend these courses enough. As a mom, these courses helped ease some of my fears of taking a 9 and 11 year old on hunting trips. We were confident enough in our training experience that my 11 year old daughter successfully took her first Cape Buffalo and I completed my Big 5. The guidance and skills we have learned as a family have strengthened our knowledge of gun safety and precision shooting for successful hunts as well as family time on the range. The leadership, instructors and staff are wonderful and we look forward to many more classes in our future.”

The SAAM class we took in the past gave us a great introduction to long range shooting and helped us start developing our rifle skills for quick clean harvests on our hunting trips in Wyoming. The Partner assist shooting session came into play during our guided Moose hunt last year. We closed from 1000 yards to 300 yards on a big mature Moose, but couldn’t get any closer without him eyeing us. However, that put us in a patch of willows hip high with no good foundation to shoot from, and the guide forgot his shooting sticks in the vehicle! So Alexandra nelt on the ground to give me a base to stabilize my rifle. I knew I was dialed in correctly after learning how to do so during the SAAM class. And success!! I was able to make a confident kill shot at 300 yards.
Many Thanks,
Anthony & Alexandra
