I just wanted to say thank you for all the great training that led up to our Safari in S. Africa. To think that Samuel (and myself) first attended FTW in August of 2021 for the New Hunter Course and then to see him harvest these animals in Africa is just outstanding. Quite a journey, skill set wise, in less than two years and a lot of fun too!

The two highlights, shooting wise, on the safari were Samuel’s one shot kill of his Kudu at 260 yds standing off of sticks; and for his Blesbock, the training for quick, snap-style shooting served him well.

One rifle safari with Shaun Buffee in Bubye Valley ZW, in 2017 after custom SAAM clinic for DSC S TX chapter.  All pictured were one shot, quick kills thanks to FTW and stalking skills of Shaun Buffee.

My most exciting kill, came in running full speed, teeth barred, snarling, shot him 10 yards.
SAAM, your training made the difference, without it, it would have been ugly.

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!
