NRL Hunter is a popular series of competitions for all levels of hunters — both newcomers and experts. Matches that showcase hunting skills are hosted through the country with multi-distance, walk-around shooting courses similar to PRS/NRL, but limitations on weight and equipment cost make this more affordable and practical. These events provide a competitive format for new and seasoned hunters to learn about skills, gear, and local hunting terrains. To participate in matches, hunters must purchase a $100 Annual NRLH membership ($75.00 for Young Guns). For more information, visit NRLHunter.org.

Jon also gives his tips on how to cope with broken down equipment and bad weather. Check out the video and try an NRL Hunter match in your state.
