    Heh. I know that dude.

    Along those lines, ballistic radio guy John Johnston shot and passed his state's CCW qual blindfolded and posted the clip to his social media. Pretty funny.

    I like the comments of the broken in $300 Yamaha beating the expensive “decoration” set up guitar as a Glock versus whatever $$$ fancy gun. Exactly right. Playability/ shootability matters.

    Do you think John Johnston gave even a moment's thought to the probable / possible effect his stunt on his state's next revision to their CCW qual?

    JCN totally see your point and agree,


    But to your point, since it’s the internet, why should we care what a person on the internet or a YouTube video thinks?

    Gonna give it a try next time I go to the range. Shooting blindfolded may improve my groups!

    A lot of musicians judge how good the sound of their gear is with their eyes.

    Being a bit of a guitar player I have watched a number of these, though never one with classical guitars. The two big take aways here were the skill of the guitarist and how much difference a well set up guitar can make. I have a few guitars but my easiest one to play well is a cheap Fender acoustic that I had set up by a left handed professional set up guy. (I am a lefty)

    Not necessarily, in my experience. At least not people who actually play.
