For us hunting is a way of life that provides us with food, connection and meaning. We honor the animals and land with reverence and gratitude. You’ll learn simple ways to make offerings and give thanks before, during and after your hunt. You’ll learn to hunt ethically and morally to ensure hunting will survive and be passed to future generations. 

Once the trigger is pulled – the real work begins! You’ll learn how to process an animal in the field with nothing more than a multi tool that fits in a pocket. Nothing goes to waste and we’ll share several meals of delicious meat processed with your own hands! We’ll also cover grinding, packaging and freezing meat for long term storage.

It’s important to have the right gear for hunting but you’ll need to buy a lot less than you might think. We’ll cover the core components of a practical hunting kit and what to wear out in the field. In a world of commerce where you’re constantly being marketed to, we’ll cut through the clutter and show you what you really need for success. We’ll also cover the gear you need to stay warm, dry, safe and prepared in the wild.

We’ll put it all together with an adventure into the woods. You’ll practice moving through the landscape with stealth. You’ll activate your ancestral senses and hone your skills of awareness. You’ll look for sign, study tracks and discover the clues that help you find animals in the wild. You’ll have the option to pursue small game on public land or big game on a unique Arizona hunting reserve.
