When Jim and I sit down to plan events for The His Light schedule, we try to pick places that will provide great shooting opportunities and fantastic experiences for our guests. \u00a0Last year I was honored to be the Keynote speaker for a great event in South Dakota called the Black Hills Shootout. \u00a0I me a lot of wonderful people and because Spearfish, which is where the event was based is so close to a lot of great shooting locations, I jumped at the chance to go out an spend a fews extra days in the region. \u00a0This is a fantastic area and I wanted to share a few images from that trip. \u00a0First though I wanted to tell you that I was inspired to add this great area to this year’s workshop schedule and we did something extra special! \u00a0Usually our six day workshops and tours are $1,295. \u00a0I so wanted people to discover this amazing place that we set the workshop fee at $995. \u00a0The trip will start in Wall, South Dakota the jumping off point for the Badlands and amazing landscape depicted in some of these images.<\/p>\n
