APRIL Training Update

In the future, students need to bring a Thumb Drive of 32G or larger to
 class to download the class information. Instead of wasting money/time and
 resources on DVD’s and cases, I will have a multi-port USB attached to the
 classroom or shop computer that allows students to do a quick transfer to
 their USB.

I have spent a great deal of time working up an exceptional cadre. With their help, it will
 buy me time to work the electronic media side of the house. One will be Facebook. The
 other will be a FB Patreon Training Site.

 You can visit “The CSAT Way” on Facebook.

We have been busy these past couple months behind the scenes.

Since we are locked in, we have attacked three summer projects.
 • Book
 • Training Website-FB Patreon Site
 • Videos for Website

I have a shooting book to the copy edit/proofreader and will get it formatted shortly on
 amazon.

 To dovetail into the book, we have been filming training videos that are more detailed and
 relevant than those of past. When we launch the site (Target NLT 15 April), there will be an
 Operator Tier and an Instructor Tier. We are still working on the pricing at this time.
 The Operator Tier will focus on the fundamentals of shooting and the how to.
 The Instructor Tier will focus on the how to instruct safely and how-to safely stair-step
 critical information for routine and high-risk training. It will include how to effectively teach
 and mentor students.

 As customers, you will have a voice in content filming. We will put out a base-load of
 information and then ask for what you want to see, updating and including new videos
 several times a month (2-3).

 It is time for me to start mentally downloading my person hard drive on what I know about
 training and what has been successful and what has not. I am starting to see a cycle of
 training come back into play of less than effective tactics and techniques that are being sold
 and new and improved. In short, I want to pass what I know is relevant to the next
 generation.

As for the Pandemic, I am a survivor of Legionnaire’s Disease and every other outbreak from
 then on. I have watched the media spread panic instead of positive solutions. This spreads
 havoc on the weak minded and the economy.

 We don’t know if China did an accidental release, intentional or they just are eating a
 Chinese version of our possum/armadillo.

 The democrats continue their sleazy way of life, political attacks and their self-serving quest
 to monopolize power. Much of the media aids in their corrupt mission.

Because we have done our summer work(book/website), my summer is free to conduct
 classes. Contact me if you are interested. I can do LE or Civilian. Currently I am booking
 for June, July, August and maybe September

Despite the Corona scare, we finished a Tac Pistol/Rifle Instructor and Operator class. It went well. In the class, I had two great officers from the Dallas Metroplex in the class who were also great shooters.

 They told me that they teach the high port with a rifle to SWAT and Patrol because some former SF guy (Like me-now teaching), told them it was faster than the low ready. They demonstrated some on the shoulder, off the shoulder moves that I just looked at with wonder. It gave John Wick some competition in dance moves. I was slightly insulted that he lumped me into the same category with this SF type, but I understand he was civilian LE and did not know the difference.

 I had another instructor set up two CSAT targets on the range next door and we went to
 seven yards with one of the Instructor Students who had told me the High Port was faster.
 I had him shoot. Here are the results

The slowest time from the Low Ready was faster than the fastest time from the High
 Port.

All rounds from both strings were in the kill zone. Five Shots were fired, one at a time
 from High Port and then the Low Ready. Low ready shots were much faster and more
 consistent in regards time.

 In this industry, there is no regulation. I hate BS artists who tell LE things that can be
 easily proven wrong. They infect a tactical team with questionable tactics and then those
 tactics are taught to patrol by the SWAT guys.

 Next, I had the T Intersection set up with three discrimination targets right and left, two
 with guns, one with a badge and the gun. I had one of the officers “take the T” as a
 singleton using the high port. He serviced the first person with a gun, missed the second
 on a scan, then picked them up once he fully exposed in the middle of the hallway. He
 shot the officer with the gun and badge. While his moves were cool looking, he overran
 his headlights and did not discriminate well.

The Low Ready is:

 The High Port:

Beware of Spec Ops envy. I don’t want to dismiss what any Special Ops or what any
 other soldier has done. There are various levels in the Special Ops community and I have
 seen guys pushed out within a year who become instructors and spread their limited
 knowledge and sometimes make stuff up. The problem is no one talks about the reason
 this person left Spec Ops, nor can anyone research their backgrounds. Occasionally, you
 can find someone legit who knows this person and can give you the real story, good or
 bad.

I try and give everyone a chance. My limit is when they take an agency/team that is
 proficient and has a good program and put them two-steps backward with questionable
 information and tactics.

 As for me, I was assigned to a Special Forces Operational Detachment and wore
 whatever color beret they told me to that week. It is a piece of cloth on your head that
 does not stop the rain or keep the sun out of your eyes. I am proud to have stayed 11B,
 infantry, my entire career as I did not want to spend months and months away from doing
 my job, going to a school (Q Course), just to get promoted faster.

Work continues and mowing/spraying has begun.

Pigs are getting thinned a few at a time.

None at this time

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on the range.
