However, if folks would like to cover it, he would spend a maximum of 1/2 a day on it. For any other additional info, please do not hesitate to contact my via PM, e-mail or cell (707.208.1613). The class is filling quickly, so contacting me via cell phone (the number previously mentioned) is your best shot. A great fixer before Nationals, with time to practice what he's teaching to prepare for it. Look forward to seeing y'all out there. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscbigdawg Posted April 2, 2004 Author Share Posted April 2, 2004 I have just a couple of slots left. If y'all are interested, e-mail or PM me, ASAP. Thanks, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted April 6, 2004 Author Share Posted April 6, 2004 Update: 1 - Visa and Mastercard are being accepted for payment. 2 - There has been some concern expressed by out of state folks about breaking any applicable laws by attending the class in CA. I have been in contact with CA-DOJ and they have made it abundently clear that it is completely legal to bring your AR (or other classed "assault weapon") into California as you are a VISTING NON-RESIDENT. So, for those that are interested, please do not hesitate to attend. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscbigdawg Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 Absolutely a worthwhile experience. I learned so much in the 3 days, that I'll writing notes for the rest of the week! My favorite part, shooting the rifle weakhand! SWEEEEEET!!! If y'all have the opportunity to take a class from Bennie, I highly recommend it!!!

ErikW Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Rich, did you learn the "standing, half-bent over, shooting through a thin horizontal port" position? Religious Shooter, how many push-ups did you do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 Close. We did have the horizontal port, but it was kneeling. Both Religious Shooter and I did 10. "If you're going to look stupid, you might as well be strong!" Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscbigdawg Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 Didn't seat my rifle mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Benzick Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Didn't seat my rifle mag. Not quite right. You didn't pull down on your rifle mag after inserting it to make sure it was seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 Hi Dave, You're right. And, I did it every time after that, so the lesson was definitely learned. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 10 push-ups per offense? I LOVE it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Religious Shooter Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Rich, I forgot to ask you... Did Voight differ at all in any of the techniques that he (Voight) taught vs. what Cooley taught? One thing that comes to mind is that sliding/twisting (with wide target transitions) with the long gun. It was a new and unexpected technique/style to me. Did Voight preach the same technique for wide transitions with the long gun? I was talking with Bob about it and he wondered how it would work with pistol. I should have asked Bennie if he uses the same technique with the pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
