Shoot farther!

[BucksnDucks]

Folks of an older age class that grew up hunting and were taught woodsmen skills and how to get close to animals, which is what hunting is

I hear ya and have no doubt it applies to you and many others. Unfortunately, I've witnessed far too many actions from this class that were not taught the skills, got lazy or have forgotten.

Classes like this are nothing new. I dislike unethical long shots the same as a 100 yard gut shot by a guy that hasn't held his rifle since last season. If they are truly marketing from the 1000-yard kill angle, shame on them. What I see on the link is not that.

"Our precision hunting series is designed for hunters who want to show up to season sharper, steadier, and more prepared when the opportunity finally comes."
"Learn the essentials of long-range marksmanship from the ground up. From rifle setup and ballistic data to field mechanics and positional shooting, this course builds the foundation for confident, ethical shots in the field."

I think practice and instruction from skilled shooters would benefit just about any hunter. In the end the decision to take the shot falls on the individual. Training in "real world" environments is quite eye opening for many and could serve as more of a reason not to take the shot.

An ad popped up on my feed from them that specifically stated shooting an animal from farther as the spotlight of the ad. The website i agree spells it out a little differently.

Doing what they like and making money. I could care less if they teach long range shooting. What you do with the training when you leave is out of their control. mtmuley
