The Grateful Dead’s decision to let fans record their live performances and share the music for free turned out to be one of the greatest marketing decisions of all time - it turned them into one of the most lucrative touring acts in the history of live music. The more in-depth content you put out for free, the more people will pay to come see you live.
Hey, our ranch is just outside of Hawthorne, NV and we were asked if you guys could train on the ranch back in the day because the Bureau of Land "Management" wouldn't allow you guys on "Public Land" with helo's and lots of brass flying around etc... We said yes of course, we have a small line cabin up in the Pilot Mountains you then used on our private acres. The ranch's terrain was similar to Afghanistan or wherever allegedly. Also, you cruised around on the ranch and had a blacked out building in Hawthorne. One day we were on highway 95 taking a load of cattle into the auction yards in Fallon, and it was spitting snow, windy and cold as heck. We saw some of you who were in an open hummer with only T-shirts on being bad-asses heading back into Hawthorne. Still a picture in my mind and made US proud. Anyway, best, from America's cowboys.
These lives are pure gold. I came up in the early 90’s shooting competition small and large bore. There was no internet or “social media tactical trainers/gurus/samurais” etc. It was all based off fundamentals and practicing, and the coach actually had us doing dry fire exercises. Breathing was a big part of it too along with grip, mount, etc and tying everything together to achieve a certain score in competition. Didn’t have all this “scientific mumbo jumbo/kiniseology” BS. Nowadays the thing is the “online influencers/tactical trainers” try to over complicate everything and people buy into it bcuz there’s a sucker born every minute. Then they find out rather quickly that the gimmick they bought into and the classes (shows/experiences) that they spent big money on attending for the weekend doesn’t help them one bit become any better at shooting. KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) and stick to the basics and practice. Everything else is just unnecessary noise and BS. That’s why I love when Matt & Ben do these lives and call people out, bcuz they’re 100% right. Keep it up fellas, these are absolute GOLD!
I'm LE. It's funny to me that the "Accountability" aspect causes slow, deliberate fire. In a real gunfight you'll need to crank shots off fast, which really means you need to train to shoot fast and *Not miss* 🤷
No one gives an actual fuck that you’re LE, the fact that you mention it is cringe as hell. As if it gives you any credence at all. Go to your calls for DV and drunk driving. From one LE to another.
I know this is way after the fact, but I happen to have opinions about the B8 thing, and i know that doesn't matter. The military pistol shooting teams shoot B8's. The military team bullseye guys are legitimately some of the most accurate centerfire pistol shooters on earth. Custom 1911's were the big thing. A 1911 builder who does the best guns for bullseye (Joe Chambers), and the best 1911's in general, started to get way more marketing with a couple social media channels to the point a couple big names like Pressburg, Pat Mac, Steve Fisher, and a brief mention by Defoor caught people's attention, and Pressburg and Fisher have signature gun models by Joe. That exposed the crowd who is always looking for 'the best' 1911 or whatever other gun, and the crowd who is always looking for stuff 'Tier 1 guys' use. B8's and those guns are directly connected. B8's are essentially the bullseye world. It's a different world, but the guys who are part of it are pretty opinionated also. Well, then some very confident in their 'knowledge' biggish name social media instructors were getting exposed to B8's as a result of all that and it gave a bit of social media credibility to guys who were already using them from crossover with AMU training and stuff like Pat Mac and Pressburg, and Fisher as from my observation it seems he ends up mimicking what he sees those other guys doing. Then some non-bullseye dude made a facebook page called b8 dev group or something. But, because these social media instructor guys couldn't do 100's at 25, but they were seeing a bunch of dudes (the military bullseye guys) do it and post there cause that's what it seemed the group was, a bullseye thing, but it became clear it wasn't, and they started using the targets closer and posting their 'clean' runs and whatnot, making up new DRILLS all the time in a way that ended up being just guys making easier and easier things to get whatever result they want from the 'drills'. A couple very unpolite social media 'instructors' ended up having the authority in the 'group' and a bunch of 'callouts' and 'challenges' were made where people were poo pooing on bullseye guys and promoting all the easy drills they were making up. Anyway.... the evolution of group thought shifted from '1911 bad, glock good cause more bullets and more reliable' to them eventually seeing 1911s tend to get better results than other guns. Then the Staccato stuff happened and it became the go to gun in the group. it was not uncommon for people to post pictures of themselves buying large quantities of b8's and they made patches and silicon things. so much uncritical group thought going on. pointless opinion over. long story short, it's like putting your firing hand thumb on the wrong side of the rifle. i remember seeing that go 'viral' in social media and the military. if the new thing is done by those others think is cool (or if it's new to them), regardless of if it's stupid or not, it becomes the magic potion to being cool and finally getting better at shooting.
@@rustyshackleford4438 no judgement against poaching btw. Gov shouldn't be telling you how you can and can't feed your family. Most predator hunters are hunting out of a blind using tripod mounted guns equipped with thermals. None of those skills are really taught in NVG classes. Theres an implicit expectation that NVG class curriculum is designed for fighting against and evading humans though, and that's a very relevant set of skills for a poacher to have.
I've always known that there is a bunch of BS in the social media shooting world....I don't get caught up in the tactical Timmy/cqb stuff. It's entertaining, but that's it. I don't have a plate carrier, battle belt, etc. My AR's and Glocks all have the oem trigger's...😂
Blade training. ACT style sparring is very helpful. Standup grappling, boxing basics, shivworks EWO, and using a knife alot in tasks from box opening, using it to cut vegetables, and skinning/gutting, butchering animals. All that combined I think helps to be well rounded.
46:13 these big name go deeper than I thought . That’s probably why tony left UA-cam to make product reviews on a service engine. Edit: I thought they were referring to Aaron Cowan from sage dynamics .
This is hard to take seriously after talking about the knife stuff.... after bashing these snakeoil instructor guru's you're going to finish the podcast talking about knife training??? This guy is rattling off brand names of knives that someone should carry to do green Beret Stuff? Seriously? Knife training is closer to player video games than it is to gun training.

Wait hold up…
I took a class called “Gunfighter Pistol”. You’re telling me I’m not a gunfighter now?
@@thinman8621
It was Glover’s class. He’s too cheap to give out certificates so basically it’s like it never happened.

He wasnt training the fundamentals of grip by showing that. Hes just explaining that trigger jerk is bullshit. Thats two different things. Lol
