I love that Ben recognizes that he can put these out for free, and it won't affect his value proposition. That's the difference between the traveling carnival model and someone with a well developed product.

6:35 Fascinating. The way Pros grip their weapons hasn't changed much in the last 350 years. "Grip the long sword with a rather floating feeling in your thumb and forefinger, with the middle finger neither tight nor slack, and with the last two fingers tight. It is bad to have play in your hands." – Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five Rings, 1645

Full class with a mic!? YEESSSSSSS Thank you Ben, much much appreciated :) I wish I could take a class with you, I would in a heartbeat if you were around my location. Thanks again!

Incredible instruction, thanks so much for posting this, Ben! One of my favorite lessons was from 1:30:00, when you're talking about deliberate, real dryfire practice. I do that fake shit all the time, started to realize it was doing nothing for me! 1. Write down bad habits. 2. Work on each one, one by one, for 3-5 minutes every day for two weeks. Be deliberate and conscious of the mechanics/techniques, is it right? yes/no. 3. Use live fire practice for the test, whether your dryfire practice is improving your bad habits. Hope to take a class with you someday. Until then, hope you're classes stay full and no student accidentally hip-hops ya haha.

Really appreciate all this free content man. Can't get enough of it!

I'm a huge fan of Ben's teaching style. I don't understand how he doesn't have a million+ subscribers. Best I've ever seen!

The pusher, the shover, the hardly even know ‘er; Has dropped a bangeeeeerrrrr

Amazing that Ben just puts this out there. Sign me up.

Man, I'm glad I found this channel however many weeks ago after a guy on reddit said something akin to "Ben Stoeger says grip doesn't matter." Turns out I've been doing everything wrong -- probably why I couldn't do a tight group even at five yards! Putting a whole class on the YouTubes is above and beyond.

Hello Ben, I've been watching for a while and learning a lot. Regarding being true target focused it hit me today and a best way to explain it. I've been working hard at mastering it and today the light bulb went off. When you're truly target focus, the dot will look like it's projecting on the target. It will look one dimension. The dot will look like a laser projecting on the target and not a dot on the glass with a target.

Thank you Ben.

thanks Ben, you are always helpful in small doses but 1.5 hours is just awesome.

Ben helps so many shooters with this kind of videos. The best Ambassador for the sport👌🏻

Now I have something to watch after work 😅thanks Ben 🤜🏼

There is no way to thank all the sharing of knowledge that Ben puts out to the world. I am a police officer in Portugal, I have just started at IPSC, I have been following every video of yours, I have your books and without a doubt my understanding and shooting proficiency has improved drastically. I really appreciate all the content you make available to the general public. Believe me, it helps a lot. Big hug and continuation of great work as always. 🇵🇹👌🙏💪

RENTON 🤯

This is awesome since I wasn't able to make this class 😂
