Better to have and not need, than to need and not have...
FOF scenarios and simulated 2 way ranges have cemented the need for me to train as dynamically as possible. SOTM is a tool that can be used or ignored depending on the situation... I would rather have the comfort in my skill at arms in as many facets as necessary, wether I need it or dont, wether I have used it or will use it....that does not negate it from being useful.
There is always a Black Swan lurking and I would much rather be prepared for its suprise appearance.
"Everyone has been given a gift in life. Some people have a gift for science and some have a flair for art. And warriors have been given the gift of aggression. They would no more misuse this gift than a doctor would misuse his healing arts, but they yearn for the opportunity to use their gift to help others. These people, the ones who have been blessed with the gift of aggression and a love for others, are our sheepdogs. These are our warrior"
