Welcome to the Ancestral Hunting School Flagship offering, taking place in Lusk, Wyoming, from November 8-12, 2024. This unique online and hands-on experience is designed to teach you the essentials about hunting, butchering and processing big game animals while connecting to the land, animals and ultimately yourself.
The Flagship Hunting School by Ancestral Hunting School, founded by Ken Conte, is an invitation for those who want to be connected with their food, be more self-reliant and learn the skills necessary to thrive in the outdoors. We teach everything from basic survival skills to spotting big game, how to walk in the woods quietly, ancestral skills, effective kill zone and how to use every part of the animal. This is hands on and you will have a coach with you out in the field. We have access to 6000 private acres in Wyoming and will be staying at the ranch house, where you will have lodging and all your meals will be provided.
You can expect to come out of this experience with a new appreciation for your food, the land and a sense of being more self-sufficient. This will ripple out into the rest of your world with potential outcomes including reverence for food, connection to nature, better concentration through long times in nature, attention to detail through firearms safety and emotional regulation through being able to ramp up and slow down when needed.
Details:
- Live 1-hour interactive sessions led by Ken Conte featuring Ancestral Hunting Schools proprietary curriculum.
- Students are urged to attend live sessions to get as much as they can, we prepare as much as we can for everything that is under our control so we can be ready to take an animal in the most ethical and conscious way.
- Each session is recorded for convenience, allowing participants to watch again.
The series consists of seven one-hour digital sessions on Wednesdays and a live hunt in Wyoming:
- Session 1: March 6th initial meeting hunter ed cards, intros etc
- Session 2: May 15 Unit 1 Hunting Essentials
- Session 3: June 15 Unit 2 Methods and Strategies
- Session 4: July 16 Unit 3 Species, Sex and Characteristics
- Session 5: August 15 Unit 4 Processing your Quarry
- Session 6: September 4 Unit 5 Cooking
- Session 7: October Unit 6 Carry the Experience Forward pre-hunt questions
Timing: 4:30 pm PST / 6:30 pm CST / 7:30 pm EST.
In person November 8-12, fly into Denver or drive if possible. Be at the property in Wyoming by mid-day November 8th (4 hour drive from Denver) leave on the 12th. Hunt afternoon of the 8th through the evening of the 11th
Physical Requirements: Deer hunting can be physically strenuous. You should be able to carry weight for distance, hike long distances (up to 10 miles per day) be prepared for early mornings and late nights. Fortunately our partners at Mountain Tough have stepped up and offered 45 days of training on their app that will help us all prepare for the strenuous work that is western hunting.
Join us for a transformational experience. If this speaks to you, we hope to see you there. Have questions? Please email us at ancestralhunting@gmail.com

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business.
Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world.
