Get ready to unleash your inner marksman in the ultimate test of skill, precision, and adventure—welcome to The Hunters Challenge! Picture this: you’re deep in the rugged, wind-swept hills of rural Nevada, where the wild terrain becomes your battlefield. This isn’t just any shooting comp—it’s a heart-pounding, adrenaline-fueled showdown that mimics the thrill of a real hunt, pushing you to your limits with your trusty hunting rifle in hand!
Strap on your hunting pack, grab your range finder, bipod, and all the gear you’d take into the backcountry—because here, it’s all about authenticity. You’ll tackle four epic stages, firing a total of 36 rounds against silhouette targets with steel plates at their vitals, at unpredictable, varied distances. The clock is ticking, the wind is whispering secrets (or howling challenges), and every shot counts as you dial in your dope and squeeze the trigger. Miss? That’s the hunt talking—adapt or get left in the dust!
But hold on, thrill-seekers—the real rush hits at one of those stages with the bonus target lurking beyond 1,000 yards! That’s right, a long-range beast that dares you to prove your mastery over gravity, wind, and sheer distance. Nail it, and you’re a legend; whiff it, and it’s fuel for the next round of glory.
Whether you’re a seasoned hunter chasing bragging rights or a sharp-shooter hungry for that next-level rush, The Hunters Challenge is where legends are forged under the Nevada sun. Gear up, lock and load—adventure awaits! Who’s ready to claim the crown?

Jim was informative, thorough, and made the class interesting. The tips/training you’ll get from him made it worth every penny. Jim went above and beyond what a normal CCW class typically teaches you.
I took Jim’s CCW class last month. I was apprehensive at first thinking that I would be criticized for my inexperience and the fact that I am a “mature” single woman. Jim gives a great class, lots of good information, and good stories to relieve tension and demonstrate important points of firearm handling. Both Jim and his wife Annaliese helped relieve my concerns. At the range, they both helped with suggestions on grip, stance, and posture. If I had known that working with them would be so comfortable, I would have taken a class months ago. I was impressed by the way they treated all of their students regardless of their age or level of experience (or inexperience). I highly recommend their CCW class.
You can’t go wrong with Jim as your ccw instructor, made the day interesting with humor and his knowledge of guns. Highly recommend
This is my 3rd State’s CCW class and by far the best one. Jim has a way of making what can be dull information interesting by adding personal real world experience. During range time his experience and focus on the fundamentals ensure even seasoned shooters improve.
I recently took my first CCW class and had a great time with Jim as the teacher. He was helpful and approachable, both in the classroom and at the shooting range. Thank you Jim for making our long day an enjoyable learning experience!
