Positional shooting class focused on alternate field positions for hunters needing practical instruction on improvised support and stability.


This positional shooting class is a practical field-format course built for hunters who need to make accurate, ethical shots from less-than-ideal positions. Instruction centers on alternate and nontraditional shooting positions that improve first-round hit probability when a conventional prone setup is not available.
Shooters work through positional problems using common field supports and the terrain around them. The emphasis is on building stable positions, understanding how support choices affect the shot, and applying those methods in realistic hunting-style scenarios rather than relying on hope when an opportunity appears.
Key training areas include:
This course is best suited for hunters who already have a rifle setup they use in the field and want more capability outside traditional supported positions. Students should bring their normal hunting rifle and field gear so they can learn to use the equipment they actually carry.
