It’s the perfect Spring Break getaway for the shooting family at South Dakota’s premier pheasant hunting lodge. The non-shooters aren’t left out, though, with plenty of activities available for them, too. Spring Break with Recoil (SBwR) will run through the entire month of March, 2018. Families can book the week their school district is on break. Special guests scheduled to be with us include: - Girls with Guns TV will be filming a program at SBwR March 18-22. - Todd Bender, 22-time world champion and Olympic gold medalist, will be working with guests March 25-29. Are there high school trap shooters in the family? SBwR makes an ideal “training camp” for trap enthusiasts to prepare for the competitive spring season. Spring Break with Recoil is a family event designed for both shooters and non-shooters of all ages. Planned activities include: - Guided pheasant hunts with Thunderstik’s famous dogs. - Open trap and skeet shooting. - Shooting instruction from world-class shooters like Todd Bender. - Paintball, game nights, casino night, prizes and live music. - Optional hiking, horseback riding, spa day, wild game cooking class, photography class, self-guided day trip to Badlands National Park (just 2 hours away) and more.
