“I have benefitted greatly from SAAM 1 and SAAM 2 training for hunting and shooting. Literally every day that I hunt I apply the skills learned at FTW. These include shot placement, body/rifle position, ballistics/bullet trajectory, weather, calculating longer range shots, weapon safety and the basics of wind reading. Since taking these classes I have hunted and applied these skills in central Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana and on two trips to Africa. These courses have made me a safer and more successful hunter. FTW has trained me to make that first shot count. I highly recommend the SAAM training to every hunter.”

I can honestly say with out my training from FTW I would have never made this shot. I connected at 608 yards and bullet went through both shoulders. I was able to dry fire a few times on him before taking the shot, got a good wind call, and built the house to make the shot. Things lined up great and I cant tell you how happy I am with this Mid Asian. Incredible hunt!! Cant wait to get back out there with you guys again.
All the best,

“Thanks to Tim Fallon and his professional team at SAAM to help me prepare for this 2021 adventure in Zimbabwe. The SAAM Safari Prep course gave me confidence to shoot powerful rifles like the 458 and to know shot placement on dangerous game like a cape buffalo so that your first shot is fatal.” Bob Braubach

Here is a picture of the 10yr old desert ram I harvested on December 13th in Mexico. The training provided by FTW in November gave me a lot of confidence in making the 287 yard shot. I had my dog paw and range card with me! Thanks for the help guys! Tess, Jax, my dad Kevin and I hope to come back to FTW sometime in the next few years!

After watching this lion sleep for two and a half hours, not even throwing mud nor a jackel could wake this snoring lion up on the first night in the blind, it was all action the next morning. It wasn’t more then 10 minutes in the blind, when he emerged from the bushes and headed curiously right towards our blind at 23 yards. Mark, my PH said “if he takes one more step shoot him” ! So I did. Thanks to SAAM my first shot was a killing shot and got a massive lion scoring 27-4/16″, which would tie him for 8th place, unfortunately he will shrink, but believe I’ll be the number one woman.
At exactly 14 feet he is a monster, and the croc of my dreams. He came up on a bank and at first I thought it was just a rock outcropping, but another staff member came running into camp to report a big croc. We had seen another good croc the day before so a blind was built. I just had to cross a small channel of the Kafue River ! ! to get to it. Well dialed in at 96 yards, I aimed for the end the smile and hit my mark, he flipped over and I took what I thought was a brain shot as did the Ph. Eight men could hardly get the croc in the boat. It took the winch on the Landrover to get him out guesstimate to be 1000 lbs. and between 65 and 75 years of age. Thanks to everyone that help to make my shooting skills vastly better than when I started my safari course.
There he was at the top, about 250 yards up. We waited to see if he would come down, several of the ibex with him were coming down after 10 mins. one of the spotters said that the one coming down to the left was him. Got him in my sights and squeezed the trigger another one-shot kill. Hooray SAAM thanks, I did my job but again I was told he was not the big one. He will score in low gold at 44″.
