Clint Smith/Thunder ranch

[hps]

Ive been watching some of Clint's videos on youtube and would like to know what everyone else thinks of him. OK? okay ok. If you havent watched any,,check out afew and lemme know what you think. ok? okay okay.

I'm sure he knows his STUFF but dude seems like a whack job. I guess telling it like it is isnt always pretty. okay ok.

I think he's awesome! He's been training people for years and I appreciate his no nonsense attitude. Big thumbs up from me.

 

[phylodog]

I've always appreciated his KISS approach. I'd love an opportunity to train with him.

Mr Smith is highly sought after because he has been there and done that and stays humble about it. He was with/under Jeff Cooper and expanded on his own. As an agency trainer myself I appreciate his sometimes blunt and sarcastic response. Especially with some of the I'll prepared minds that show up and want to argue.

 

[Drail]

Smith is the real deal. Former Marine and LEO. He makes snowflake's heads implode because he doesn't give a damn about anyone's feelings (except his wife's). Just like my dear old Drill Sgt. Not a whack job.

 

[Vigilant]

Farthest thing from a whack job ever. Blunt, pulls no punches, yes. Excellent training!

 

[venenoindy]

I have not train with him but from what I see and hear Thunder ranch is a great place to train, he tells how it is and some people may not like that approach but I appreciate his honesty.

We love Clint!

One of the founding members of the Allen County Practical Defense League in Ft Wayne Indiana before he became great. Clint is Clint and will always be Clint. ACPDL is still going strong. You cannot go wrong training with him.

I’ve taken a carbine class and he is a very good instructor. Straight to the point and no BS. I like his teaching style. If you need your hand held and rainbows blown up your ass while training, he might not be the instructor for you.

Whack job? Nope. Great instructor that happens to not give a **** what anyone else thinks? Yep.

 

[Coach]

I would like to train with him.

I find Clint Smith highly entertaining and full of well thought out info and insight.

Agree or disagree. . . makes no difference to Clint. He knows what he knows from experience and much considered thought.

 

[croy]

I really want to take a Clint Smith class. Maybe one day.

That's the problem with gun owners. They want to hear what they want. Not what they need to hear.

 

[Spear Dane]

Clint is both entertaining and tells the bold faced truth. I would train there in a heartbeat.

 

[Gabriel]

That's the problem with gun owners. They want to hear what they want. Not what they need to hear.

That's not limited to gun owners. That is humanity in general.

 

[Trigger Time]

People who are snowflakes won't like him or get it. People who have the warrior mindset will get it

 

[croy]

That's not limited to gun owners. That is humanity in general.

Thats very true. I shouldn't have labeled them as just gun owners

 

[Skullglide]

I like his style. Indiana guy with real experience.

 

[VERT]

I did not know Clint was from Indiana? Oh and he is on my top 5 list of people with whom I would like to train.

Yes, Fort Wayne. His father and brother were FWPD. Clint was Allen County SD.
