SCOUTE Precision Hunter Development Course

SCOUTE PRECISION HUNTER DEVELOPMENT COURSES - 2023

BECOME A BETTER HUNTER - TAKE YOUR SHOOTING TO THE NEXT LEVEL

We will offer 3 SCOUTE PHD Courses in 2023 after popular demand from our 2022 PHD’s.

In 2023, we will have 3 SCOUTE PHD Courses: a BEGINNER course, an INTERMEDIATE course, and an ADVANCED.

We are bringing men and women hunters together to expand their knowledge, skillset and confidence at long range. We as ethical hunters believe that we owe it to the animals we pursue to be as efficient and consistent with ourselves and our equipment as possible. These courses will help you do just that! Our intention is to offer an extremely educational event that will enhance your understanding and application of skillsets to better accomplish your goals. We also want everyone to have fun and meet other great people!

These events will be hosted at The Grainery in Wilsal, MT.  The course will consist of three 8-hour days with a 1 hour lunch. Check-in will be the Thursday afternoon before the event starts. Food and drinks will be provided.

SCOUTE PHD COURSES ARE:

INTERMEDIATE is July 14th - 16th for $2,500 and for shooting enthusiasts and serious rifle hunters who want to push your limits and/or reset. Training will be conducted by Modern Day Sniper with assistance from Team SCOUTE. Rick Crawly from Achilles Heel Tactical and Justin Rasmussen from Razco Gear will demonstrate pistol manipulation and bear behavior for self defense.

This Intermediate Level is for those who have some experience behind their rilfles, but are looking to unlock more potential from themselves, and their shooting systems.  This class is a great reset, and serves as an excellent foundation to continue to build upon.

ADVANCED is Aug 18th - 20th for $3,000 and for those long range shooters looking to take the next step in their progression and elevate your skill level. This is a good class for those who took our INTERMEDIATE last year. Training will be conducted by Modern Day Sniper with assistance from Team SCOUTE. Rick Crawly from Achilles Heel Tactical and Justin Rasmussen from Razco Gear will demonstrate pistol manipulation and bear behavior for self defense.

This Advanced Level is for those who've had formal training experience in the past and are looking to be challenged by exposure to more complex field-shooting scenarios under tigher time and accuracy standards.  You're going to learn how to manage both your mind, and your equipment.
