You must be a rare instructor because I know many who say they didn't learn anything useful about shooting or the law in their renewal class.

The renewals that came through would often shoot tea-cupping, thumb behind slide, rearing back, etc. Usually saying prior instructor didn't teach anything about shooting, only tested proficiency. I can see that would be ideal, but if i can help them be better shooters, i'd hate for them to leave without improvement.

Nothing personal. I also used to feel that way when I took CPE classes before I semi-retired.
