I'm gonna guess that if Frank Proctor says competition translates to real life scenarios, he probably knows what he's talking about.
It is not just Proctor.
Kyle Lamb, John Mcphee, Pat McNamara, Mike Pannone, Larry Vickers, to name a few fellows who feel competition is valuable for training.
It is actually pretty universal that real deal SMU dudes see the advantage IPSC, 3 Gun or IDPA type competitions bring to real world conflicts.
