I am still pretty new on this board and I was focused on the other parts - that I missed this thread.
I would like to state my experience with Ralph and Clint. They are extreamly nice, extreamly knowledgable, and extreamly helpful. I think Ralph gets a bad rap a lot. When I have spoken to him he has always given - never asked for money or anything in return. He loves combatives! He researches everything about it!
In addition, I am a new instructor and both Ralph, Clint, and the Wolfpack, have helped me work out some bugs in my teaching and provided me with lots of historical knowledge and simpler ways of doing things. Due to John having had Carl as one of his instructors, I view Client and Ralph as my instructos as well.
Hope this helps to give a different perspective on Ralph, Clint, and the wolfpack.
P.S. I am not a member of the wolfpack
