The Marksman Experience

The Marksman Experience Overview

We are kicking this program back in action for the 2021 season and have some incredible things planned. The program itself is comprised of 4 jam packed days of shooting. You and your group will shoot: 5 stand shotgun, Sporting Clays, .22 pistol, 9mm pistol .22 rifle, .223 rifle, .308 rifle, and .224 Valkyrie on our 1000 yard gun range.

Archery programs will be in the mix as well with Static archery, Olympic Archery, 3D, Sporting Arrows, and crossbow to name just a few. You’ll be instructed by top notch shooting professionals in a crawl, walk, run mentality. This program is designed for new shooters and seasoned shooters alike and I can guarantee that you’ll leave a more confidant, educated, and talented shooter.

Camping will take place on the ranges and all meals will be out in the field. Your food will be the same thing the folks at the bottom of the mountain are having with the exception of our cook out day when instructors will grill hotdogs, hamburgers, etc for the participants. Think 4^th of July style meal on the ranges. The program wraps up with a trip down our ¾ mile big zip and some awesome white water rafting in the New River Gorge.
