Team Huntress Outdoor Adventure Clinic

by: Cory Glauner

Just because a woman wants to learn outdoors skills doesn’t mean she wants to stop being a woman. That’s why Team Huntress created the Outdoor Adventure Clinic, a revolutionary three-day event that caters to women who want to learn or expand on their outdoor skills while enjoying beautiful accommodations, spa treatments and the camaraderie of like-minded women.

Following the resounding success of its inaugural Outdoor Adventure Clinic for women in June, Team Huntress has announced plans for its second clinic to be held at the beautiful Buffalo County Outfitters in Mondovi, Wisconsin, August 21 – 23, 2009.

The Outdoor Adventure Clinic offers training in archery, firearms, wildlife photography, gear, and survival skills from the expert Team Huntress staff of prominent women hunters, while a team of clinicians offers the kind of pampering women love: massages, facials, foot rubs, nature walks, and wine tasting.

Because the majority of the teaching staff is female, the environment is particularly welcoming for women who are interested in learning outdoor skills but may be intimidated by the overwhelmingly male nature of the shooting sports. Team Huntress understands that women want and need a supportive and pleasant environment for learning – no ribbing about missed shots, no competitive bravado, and no substandard accommodations that make a woman cringe.

Instructors for the Team Huntress Outdoor Adventure Clinic include: Terri Lee Pocernich, Camp Wild Girls; Kirstie Pike, Prois Hunting Apparel; Barbara Baird, Women’s Outdoor News; Stacey and “Hawk” Huston, A Focus in the Wild; Holly Hesyer, NorCalCazadora; and Jane Keller, Team Huntress.

The Team Huntress formula – instruction, female staff and pampering – proved highly effective at the inaugural Outdoor Adventure Clinic at the Pheasant Phun/OJ Bar Ranch in Hitchcock, S.D. in June.  Women who’d never fired a gun felt secure taking those first steps and found they really enjoyed what they were learning. By the end of the weekend, participants were abuzz about the shooting sports and the new friendships they’d formed.

The Team Huntress Outdoor Adventure Clinic is the ideal gift, whether it’s a woman treating herself to something she deserves or an outdoorsman who’s been looking for a way to bring his wife, daughter, or girlfriend into the lifestyle he loves.  The clinic is open to women ages 18 and over who want to learn or expand their outdoor skills.

Buffalo City Outfitters is located at Mondovi, Wisconsin, 25 miles south of Eau Claire and 1 ½ hours from the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport.  Airport pickup and return is provided for the clinic.

Cost of the weekend clinic is $995, which includes instruction, meals, spa treatment, gifts (clothing, skin care, and food) from sponsors, lodging, and airport transportation.  To learn more or book your spot at the clinic, contact Team Huntress founder Jane Keller, jane.keller@yahoo.com, 605-450-0931.
