Thank you FTW for all the help, I learned so much from everyone! Because of you all at FTW I got my first Elk in Colorado. Joe

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...

My time spent at FTW is the ONLY reason I was able to successfully harvest this Montana Elk at 533 yards. Their training and exceptional staff are second to none Wesley T. Myers, MD

I was on a spike elk hunt in NE Oregon near the tiny town of Tollgate. The shot was about 350 yards using my Weatherby 30-378. My buddy Dan Meyers was sitting next to me on a hillside when I shot....

Our time at FTW was an amazing experience and gave us the ability to ethically harvest animals at longer distances all the while ensuring we needed only ONE shot! Crumpton Family

I had a mule deer tag for Montana and was privileged enough to hunt the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch in Dupuyer, Montana this last week (5-7 November). Charles and I had 2 solid days of...

After 18 years of applying I finally drew my Colorado Bighorn Tag. To increase my odds of success I trained at the 4 day FTW SAAM course. Wow was that lucky! Took this one at 600 yards day 4 after 6...

It was a great hunt. Hard. Couldn't have gotten me to believe how hard that ground was to cover just from a pictures. Weather was all over the place. A couple of good warm days hunting in t-shirt,...

I took this mule deer at 720 yards with a 338 Lapua that had been Ackley Improved. I missed the first shot, but corrected for wind and killed him with the second. My dad took his antelope at 450...

Free range Aoudad. 625 yards ,,, one and done. Hill Country 300 Win Mag. Great hardware and FTW training - great combo. JT

It was more than the thrill of getting such a great elk I was particularly proud of the shot.” To me, having the skill to place the shot perfectly through hear and lungs was far more important than...

“My first African safari consisted of 21 days in Moyowosi and 7 days in Masailand, Tanzania. Not exactly an “entry level” safari. This once in a lifetime experience tested every skill developed and...

“I have hunted in Africa for nine years and have hunted all of both the Big Five and Dangerous Seven. Prior to each hunt I attended either a SAMM or Precision Shooting Course at FTW ranch. Without a...

The Bell Family have been coming to the FTW for quite some time, and no matter how many times we have been there, we always have fun and learn something new!

Our first family trip to the FTW Ranch for a SAAM precision course was in 2015. The South Island of New Zealand was our upcoming international hunting trip. Kaylee was 8 years old and a spunky...

I took the SAAM Safari Course in December 2019 and the SAAM Advanced Course in May 2020. Both courses far surpassed anything I was expecting, but the thing that struck me most during both classes...

Great start to 2020, thanks SAAM!!! Rich

My initial reason for taking the FTW SAAM course was to learn the technical aspects of shooting. I’d missed some shots while hunting and realized I didn’t really know what I was doing wrong! During...

To say I’m glad I did this is a serious understatement. For four full days I didn’t worry about the office or any other extra-collateral nonsense and I slept well. More importantly, I discharged...

I got this Transcaspian Urial on the first day of the hunt. 420 yards. The first time I visited you for the SAAM course was in 2015, to prepare myself for my very first sheep, an Alaskan dall sheep....
