Good to see you up and running this morning Joe, sorry we missed each other on the call and hope the boys practice went well.
Competitors learn to run the gun very efficiently in competition [ C ]. Yet they draw to eye level for every shot, and as you know, that's not the most efficient way to skin the cat under 12 feet when you're behind the curve, there are other more efficient/effective skills that can be employed.
There's learning to shoot and hit and manipulate the weapon and then there's learning how to stay alive with a weapon. Skills that could be employed, and should be employed are not employed in the games.
Put the average competitor [ only shooting in matches ] in a fof scenario, what they do in C isn't what you'll see them use in the field. That's a HUGE difference, and one that people who recognize it will seek others who can impart the skills of staying alive. That involves not just the shooting portion but the tactics portion.
I always laughed at how one could get a walk through of the course of fire before shooting it in C. There's no such thing in the real world, just another example of the disparity between the street training and the C's
