Fieldcraft Course

Hey everyone, just wanted to share some information for the Fieldcraft Course I'll be teaching in Montana. It is a course designed to teach the student how to survive nature first, then as the class progresses we will be focusing on developing individual and team based skills to fight off threats. It is a 3.5 day class that takes place completely off grid. We will be living out of our rucks in a low profile and covert manner.

The main subjects we will be covering are: practical field rifle marksmanship (out to 500 yards), field water resupply, firecraft, day and night land navigation (with and without map and compass), shelters and hides, camouflage, small unit tactics and tactical planning. This class is meant to give the student a very solid foundation that will allow them to be fully capable in many different environments.

Please see the course description and gear list here:

and the class calendar here:

Please email me ([email protected]) if you have any questions, Thanks!

Hard for me to get out to mountain west for near term, crossing my fingers for a future Brushbeater/Badlands collab NC Fieldcraft/Scout course extravaganza. I’ll supply the scotch and WAP jokes.

Be careful what you wish for! Lol it would be pretty awesome to get a bunch of guys together and hold a training convention of sorts.

Awesome, you too as well. We might have to revisit this topic privately amongst those who would be participating to see what possibilities there are.

We definitely need to do this. Soldier of Fortune did it back in the day and I think we can too.

For sure, I think that’s how 3 gun got started too. We could call it the “Scout Rendezvous” or something cool like that.
