A nice claim, but one that fails to meet the test of reality. Would you thinnk a person who had read lots of books and watched lots of video on how to perform heart surgery would have much success as a heart surgeon? Of course not. Or, I don't know, given your record of claims you might!David, We disagree. If a video shows me what you are being taught at Gunsite, I promise you that it can be learned. If a book describes with good detail the same tactics taught at Thunder Ranch, I promise you it can be learned.
It is interesting to me that the only people who ever claim they can be as good on their own as those with professional training are those who have not had any professional training.
Both of them involve specific skills and training issues. You claim that anyone can get as well trained by reading books and watch in gvideos as taking training. That is nonsense, no matter what example you use. You can talk about driving cars, appraising property, shooting, swimming, or any other sport or activity that requires specific skills that one must learn.David, Comparing gun handling and tactics with heart surgery is a bit of a stretch.
Nonsense again. It is proven every day, in many fields. Your refusal to recognize that does not change the facts.No way to prove either of us right except to say that somebody invented the training.
Yes, I have. And I realized how inadequate that was the first time I got some professional training.Have you never developed your own training?
Given that you have never attended any of the big schools (or little for that matter) that is another claim without any support.Funny that much of what I was doing on my own is pretty close to alot of what the big schools do.
That claim again is rather specious given your recognized history. It also is indicative of how little you understand the purpose of good training and what it is designed to do.It is just as interesting to me, how many graduates of the professional trainers could be outdone, by one without professional training.
Everyone is entitled to their own beliefs. That does not mean everyone is also entitled to their own facts. f course we are not talking about shooting schools, we are discussing professional training. The fact that you would mix the two up is rather telling.I stand by my belief that one doesn't need shooting school to become proficient.
I find nothing in Florida that attracts me. If I want to shoot a match there a plenty around here. Thanks anyway.Come to Florida and lets hit the range or even better a match.
