Hello FTW! It was a great trip. First buffalo was a good, fast stalk, got in front of the herd, about a 90-100 yds with the Lott. The Impala, a pretty long shot (for me at least, with a big caliber) with the 375, 225-250 yds. The second buffalo was a dugga boy in the thicker stuff, about 100 yds with the Lott. He was bigger, older, better horns, warier, and a much longer stalk, maybe about 3 hours. My thanks to you guys for helping me to get ready for those quick shots off the sticks! Hope everybody is well at the ranch. Best always, Raymond

Wanted to drop you, Dave, and Doug (and the rest of the team at FTW) a quick note. Just got home from a Dall Sheep hunt in the North West Territory and took this amazing 11 year old ram….to say it was an incredible hunt would be an understatement! There is no question in my mind that without the training I have had over the years at the SAAM Course I would have NEVER made the shot…the ram was 458 yards away and the shot to distance was 426. I had to build my base in a bolder pile and could only get in the sitting position….used all the training from SAAM. This was a shot I would have never taken before going through the training with y’all but I had the confidence and there was no question I was going to execute….the round literally hit him perfect through the shoulder and I followed up with a second shot that also went right where it was supposed to (Doug, you would be happy – I didn’t even come off the scope). Thanks again guys….I don’t want to sound like a “cheap ad” for SAAM just telling the facts here of what happened…..the value of this course is absolute…..really looking forward to getting back out there in November!!
Best,
Joe

Leopard Charge ! My SAAM training kept me cool under pressure while on safari recently. I was on my third try for leopard and using a pack of hounds to hunt Zimbabwe’s cattle killing leopards. We got in too close and the cat charged! Many thanks to Tim and Doug for my SAAM training that was incredibly valuable on this safari. It may have saved my life! Philip Glass

Madison turned 18 today. Thanks SAAM for making it one she will never forget. Only needed her “first shot”

Just got back from an exciting adventure in Russia. They do things a little different there, but the hunting is certainly not boring! The SAAM training helped me to stay calm and focused while charging after my bear. Loading the gun properly and safely is tough to do while running! Then being able to shoot a large bruin at a full bore run. I was able “To Fall To The Level Of My Training”. A very successful single shot kill. Thanks again and always for what you all do there at SAAM! Never in my wildest dreams would I be going on these adventures without the training you provide. Our Best to you all. See you in April, (again!)

Two tough shots but thanks to FTW they were on. It confirms to me why I continue to come to FTW—getting on the sticks in a very quick moment, making a great shot, reloading quickly and instantly getting another one in him. There was NO time to “think” about what I was doing—it just came naturally. THAT would never have happened had it not been for FTW. Thanks everyone!
