My problem w non full contact training is it set you up for a bad scenario gone worse. Two primary issues A. The brain and nerves are not learning the follow throughs. Cops taught to take guns away from others have taken guns from criminals and handed them back because that's what their brain is used to. B. When that kick or punch is thrown, what will happen when the assailant kicks and the person moves or doesn't react as is
prescribed in the drill? "Oh crap!" will be the first thing and a loss of what to do next. Also, punch a sheetrock wall, softer than a skull, and tell me what you can and will be able to do with your hand next.
