Apparently, the topic of action beats reaction and tactical decisions [ where SD is concerned against weapons ] isn't of much interest to the majority of members.

On the contrary, brownie, those of us who've trained under you, Bob, EBL, and similar totally understand your ACTION beats REACTION statement! Your thread came in at a time during the holiday weekend when, at least for me, I was dealing with a housefull of out of town guests and although I read your OP, didn't have a lot of time to consider a thoughtful response and still don't, so I didn't yesterday, but perhaps later today.

That’s great Mike!
Brownie‘s penchant for bringing out students abilities and train them to such a degree in only one class is, I think, unparalleled.

When I took my first TFP course; I had all the skills we covered that weekend available to me when I left. Unlike most courses where you’re hit with a lot, then it’s all on you to work on those skills until you either get them on your own, or settle for something less.
(Of course bttbob is also an instructor who, I believe, ensures that his students “get it” before they leave.)

I actually do go to the TFP courses now to see all my training friends again, work as an RSO, and maybe get to shoot a little bit. 😁

Same here! 🤠
