I've been lurking this thread hoping against hope that something worth reading would happen.
Just when things were looking bleak, Hooky FTW!
There is good training and bad training, Just because you spent money on it doesnt mean its not horse hockey. Some of the best Training is pretty dirt cheap. NRA. Where was that video of the dude spinning and circles shooting a rifle one handed and a pistol in the other hand? I bet that dude thought he was getting high speed training and paid a fortune for it

well my banhammer has been known to run fast and loose too....
He just likes to pose that question from time to time because he's had some training and tends to look down his nose on those that have not.
You may very well be right because I don't know him personally but I would say that I find it hard to believe that I'm the only one that's ever gotten that vibe from some of his posts.You are correct that bwframe asks similar questions from time to time.
Your are wrong about the motive you are projecting on him.

I can't address that other than to suggest that more than one person can be wrong in the same way.
I know that bwframe has had a significant amount of firearms-related training (and not all of it from us). I also know that he believes that it's very important to be able to use your weapon effectively under stress and that professional instruction followed by practice is an excellent way to move closer to that goal. He is an advocate and wants to encourage others with consider a similar path because he thinks it's valuable. Whether or not he is a successful advocate in your eyes is a different issue, but "look(ing) down his nose" is not a part of it, whether that is perceived by the reader or not.
Double feed?

The internet stinks at conveying nuances and motivation.
Training is a personal matter...
My technique involves standing by my grill (at the farm...Not in town) with whatever gun I happen to have on me and every now and again when I am flipping a steak or burger I draw my weapon and shoot my 8" gong from between 15 and 25 yards out with a cig dangling from my mouth...Weak hand or strong hand depending on which hand the spatula is in...I do this every weekend and expend between 30-50 rounds doing it...
I don't know if it is good training or not but it let's the wife know that I am still in the yard and that there is no longer any need for me to wear the shock collar....
