Field Training Exercises

Private Training for Your Group

An FTX is a private, multi-day training event built around one group and what it wants to accomplish. Our Precision Rifle and Pistol & Carbine FTXs draw teams from security, private security contracting, and military backgrounds. The Hunter Work-Up is for any hunter who wants to be ready before the season. Every FTX includes rooms and meals at Horseshoe Bay Resort, about fifteen minutes from the range.

Every FTX is built around what your group wants to accomplish. We start with the basics, from the parts of the gun to safe handling. Next comes the flat range, with fundamental drills that get the team ready to move. Then comes the main event: a training mission built around your goal, whether that is a village assault scenario, a long-range sniper exercise, or an actual hunt.

Groups stay small, and instruction is led by Army Special Forces and Ranger veterans. The fundamentals are earned, and failing in training is part of the plan.
