    It is a very nice way to learn.
    I see nothing wrong with paying money for a course, it's an honest way of making a buck, but beware that the quality varies enormously. There are many experts with partial and I have attended where the instructor were so embarrasingly underdog in skill we just threw him out.

    (Anyone heard of the Lutz Muller bullets?
    Lutz Moeller in English on Bullets

    We actually tested them and they work best on the internet...)

    Now thats funny !! The guy is a bit of a legend in different circles of shooters and a revered designer of stuff to others ,Interesting uncovering the layers of BS to see if he is as good as some say .Great thread went down on Snipershide about the BS some manufacturers spin especially the south African guy that make solids -he just failed miserably and you were paying a premium for his failures !

    There is much to get right with shooting accurately at all distances depending on the size of the object you are shooting and I know all of you that enjoy this sort of target type shooting understand the difficulties one encounters even after you got you load down pat , are zeroed ,your body mechanics are oiled and functioning so you are correctly positioned and comfortable to shoot and watch you shot land .The greatest and hardest obstacle is the wind school and understanding what is happening in all the different terrain features that you encounter --basically I doubt you stop learning but its a lot of fun and a school you don't mind attending as much as possible
