Excuses Not To Shoot

Clint Smith of Thunder Ranch explains why not to shoot. 

Here are some additions this author would add:


1. I don't have time. 
It is all about priorities. A person will make time for the things he thinks are important. So, a more honest statement would be: "I do not think this is a top priority."

2. Money (I don't have enough to train)
Again, this is a priority. What is funny is seeing people who vape or smoke, drink heavily on most weekends, then "don't have the money." Once, this author even saw that excuse, then the same person went to the beach the following weekend. 

3. Weather
If only all self defense situations were in perfect environments. Also, some of the best reviews come from classes held in the worst weather.

4. Safe Princesses
Why have a gun if you cannot shoot it? And if you collect some guns, why not pick up a few to train with? The good training guns are usually cheaper than collector guns. 

5. I already know how to shoot. 
If you say this, then you really don't know how to shoot. The true masters are always practicing, and they train regularly. Plus, tactics and techniques change with time. Improvements are made. And what's to say that the way you learned was correct?
