I have noticed with D4 and Pat Mac on there vids when shooting they don’t hold nothing back on misses!! They’ll even till you they did on the vid and post it!! Nothing but respect for them guys!! It takes a lot of balls to own up to misses from these guys and post them on YouTube or regular TV
Next time you head to the range, take all the books you own. Just shoot the shit out of them. You’ll be doing them a favor.
What you’re referring to is integrity, and the guys you mentioned have a lot of that. Integrity to their students and themselves. If you don’t admit your weaknesses you’ll never improve on them and, unlike the guys who want to sell theatrics, these guys get it.
Does anyone have their Tier Table handy that could fax it to me? I lost mine and the S Shop is being a real pissy bitch about letting me have a new one…“should have laminated it”, they said. Need a table for reference, for without tiers, how doth one operate?
Everyone misses once in awhile it’s what you do after the miss that seperates D4,Mac and the others from the average shooters. They live follow thru. A miss in the real world with out follow thru could mean disaster for them.
I laugh too, but only because from my background in computer science, you always start counting with 0, so what regular people call “tier 1” I see as the equivalent of “tier 2”… because “tier 0” would be better funded.
Basically I was getting at how a lot of guys do retake after retake until they get the vid perfect then post the vid of no misses or flaws. (Yes I know everyone misses)
I think Mongo said it best.
What you do after the miss is what counts.
If you miss that shot and scream “F***” and drop your head in shame, you would not have good results in the real world.
Fail quickly…
Take that follow up shot…quickly. win
I’m pretty sure the first time I heard the phrase “Tier 1” in reference to a group of people, it was for a video game (Medal of Honor, 2010).
I’m sure it had been floating around a bit before that, but that was the first mainstream use I’d heard. It seems to have grown quite a bit since then.
