Rob--Yes..let's do April.
I have a semi private range where we can use both Airsoft and live fire.
As well working on some H2H skills and how they blend with the shooting portion.
My amusement is not with you (we see eye to eye on many issues) but with the anti point shooters who still bash the old methods while embracing Combat Focus.
A prime example of this is Kevin Davis of the Akron, Ohio PD.
It is IMHO that they have been looking for a way to change their position and now have a face saving way to do so.
In any case I am delighted that others can now adopt point/target/combat/threat focused shooting and help bring it into the mainstream.
Where we will have to agree to disagree is importance of combat experience, since I believe that such experience is vital when evaluating what works and what does not.
Trying to do this on the square range, competition venue or even with FOF is asking for trouble.
While personal combat experience is not required to be a good instructor (for example I am a much better teacher than my dad, who was a WW2 Ranger for 2 years) I feel it is mandatory to teach either from one's own experience or from that of others.
