Join us for an unforgettable experience where you’ll sharpen your skills, forge new friendships, and discover what it takes to become a western hunter.
*Camps are limited to 20 people max!
In order to get Big Game Trained, we offer a complete hands-on training experience that will take you from feeling scared to ready and prepared. Our multi day camp will take you through the process of before, during, and after the hunt so you can feel confident in going on your next western hunt.
Camp will begin on a Thursday night and end on Sunday afternoon. Thursday night you will check-in and get situated in camp for the weekend. We’ll have a nice meal, socialize and go over our itinerary.
Friday and Saturday will be action packed from sun up to sun down including: workouts, e-scouting, tag applications, gear rundown, archery shoot, hunting strategies and calling techniques, and more!
Sunday we’ll get a light workout and shoot in and go over some of the logistics after completing a successful hunt and go over some best practices.
*Note: in order to give you and other participants the best experience, each camp is limited to 20 people
