I didn’t make the LAV/Hack class a few weeks back @ Bill’s ranch but know for a fact some/many of the attendees did not have previous classes w/ either of those men. This was also the case for my training partner in a 2015 class near Waxahachie. He had zero time w/ Ken but joined me for an advanced class that had a night iteration & daytime work using hot guns in near proximity of other shooters > snake drill etc.
I’d be very surprised if any of the poster’s in this thread got turned down for the 2018 class, no doubt I’d be all over it if they came back to my AO.
