"I knew nothing about four wheeling but knew I had to try it in my new Jeep.  Bob's course was perfect for someone who wanted knowledge before hitting a trail.   I learned what my Jeep is capable of as-is, and what it can do with modifications. Most importantly, I learned what I'm capable of.  With his guiding, I was able hit rocky hills with confidence and I'm ready to start going on trails.   I learned about the various recovery options, when I would use them, and the equipment that I might need.  There is soooo much you can buy for Jeeps, and Bob really helped me prioritized what I need to protect my Jeep and myself.  Bob is a GREAT instructor and I plan to take more of his courses in the future."  Renee D. - Prairie City Discovery Course Student

"I am a self-taught off-roader with about 6 or 7 years of experience.  Without doubt, I have learned more in two days about operating my vehicle effectively and safely, negotiating various terrain types safely, and using recovery equipment properly then I have in all of the prior years of time on my own.  I feel confident that as a result of this course I will be able to take my vehicle into extreme conditions without damaging the vehicle, injuring myself or my passengers, and without fear of becoming stranded in a dangerously remote area.  Worth every penny!!!"  Charles P. - Prairie City Discovery Course Student
