I have taken several classes, so in the scope of this thread my opinion should weigh more than yours.
You should check out the status update threads.
I don't know the guy personally, therefore I can not say that I like him or not. I will say he comes off as being very cocky. Something I don't want in an instructor/trainer. I have dealt with cocky people all my life. I would not take one of his classes unless I got a chance to meet him first, to see if that's really how he is. Or if it's just a show for the camera.
I had the opportunity to shoot with a gentleman this weekend who spoke positively about TR and Yeager. He said Yeager is different in class then on You Tube and thought he does an excellent job. This is the opinion of a law enforcement professional who is an superb shooter and has a lot of experience. The person I spoke with felt a lot of what Yeager says online might be to generate controversy. No such thing as bad publicity.
If TR comes back to Indiana I will try my best to make it to a class.

Let's see them...Lots of other videos out there, done by other training & gun companies, with a cameraman down range. Actually happens alot in the firearms industry.
Easy, watch some of the shooting shows that are out there now.
Also check out some of the pics in Small Arms Review magazine, many of those were done by Jim Brown of Bremen IN, Jim shoots lots of pics from "downrange".
As I come across vids of others I'll send you a link....

Working in the firearms industry as I do, I've seen downrange photography done alot. Actually will post some of my own product videos soon, with some scenes shot from downrange.
... working in the industry, I've seen it done many times.
Not something I'm here to debate because it in fact happens alot.
That doesn't mean it's not done safely or in a unprofessional manner.

But I am about to have dinner with James Yeager & his wife at Giannettos in Mishawaka(14020 Cleveland rd) if anyone wants to stop by and see if I'm for real or not.
