Thanks for all of the answers everyone, it will helpa lot at my next range sesion.
Matt: I train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I am a Purple Belt under the Machado Brothers they are first cousins to the Gracie's, we are affiliated with Rigan and Roger Machado. It takes 10-12 years to get a Black Belt in BJJ. I am half way, the hard part is over. Purple is considered the first advanced belt, I still have a long way to go.
I also have a 2nd black belt in an eclectic style of jiu-jitsu, 1st degree Black Belt in an Okinawian style Karate called Uechi-Ryu and have black belt level knowledge of Akido-never tested. Also trained in Judo,Sambo,traditional weapons and dabbled in everything Ican. I give different semianrs for self-defense for women, many areas of grappling, law enforcement, edged weapons and firearm retention.
I love jiu-jitsu and golf and one day I will be very good at both. It would be hard forme to choose one over the other. In the summer I train less and hit the links a little more.In order to help ease the pain of my loves with my wife I have found ways to make money fromboth loves.I teach jiu-jitsu and build golf clubs...so that always helps.
