Mrs. scatter and I have decided to attend the subject event for our 30th anniversary (yeah, we're real romantics). Trying to decide on which seminars and workshops to sign up for. I'm looking for people who have had attended seminars with these instructors, or have some other knowledge about them.
Edged Weapons for Everyday Carry: A Comprehensive Hands-On Workshop w/ Thomas Kier
This is $75 per person for a four hour course. I was initially interested but after looking at a few of his videos on Youtube I'm not very impressed. Thinking of passing on this one even though I am interested in the subject.
Bullet Proof Mind for the Armed Citizen w/ Dave Grossman
This is only $25 per person for four hours. Based on my limited research he's a good guy to listen to, but I don't want to pay $25 and sit for four hours to hear stuff that is inherently obvious for folks like us who are fairly well trained.
Dynamics of Personal Defense w/ Steve Tarani
This is another expensive one, $75 per person for two hours. Google tells me that as an instructor he is somewhere between Grossman and Kier.
Refuse to be a Victim Basic Workshop w/ Ed O'Carroll
Four hours for $25 each. Can't find much about him with my limited Google-fu.
What say ye, NES? And I'm NOT interested in comments on our choice of anniversary activities.
