#55 After Dark: Becoming A Ranger, Improving Through Failure, Dealing with Threats & Founding Kinetic Consulting with Jon "Duffy" Dufresne

from Iron Sights · host Iron Sights

Today I had the opportunity to meet with Jon Dufresne. After leaving the Military, Jon got into Executive Protection and transitioned into the world of coaching and firearms instruction. In my mind, Dufresne is who I would consider "A Coach's Coach".  We get into all kinds of stuff during this episode which was recorded off-site in Las Vegas at SHOT SHOW 2023. Whether you're already a Duffy fan , interested in becoming a Ranger or learning more about the world of firearms instruction and coaching this episode will be a good listen. Dufresne does a solid job of breaking down how he went from a broke South-Florida resident to one of the most respected instructors in the states.Timestamps:00:00 Intro02:29 Jon's Background08:00 Jon's Shooting Trajectory12:39 Army Ranger13:44 Job Experience18:34 Being Caught Him Off Guard20:23 Teaching And Leadership 24:44 Challenges31:38 Differences Between OK vs. Super Successful33:25 Who Is He Working With (Clients)39:54 Jon's Way Of Teaching 46:44 Formula For Success As An Instructor 58:52 The Interwebs01:05:14 What Is Jon Excited About?01:06:49 Cases And Training As A Student 01:12:12 What Should Be The Approach Of New Students?01:18:25 Ego Problems01:24:39 How To Reach OutSponsors by Red Dot Fitness Online Training Programs:Red Dot Fitness Training Programs: https://www.rdftrainonline.comOnline membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ironsMore Iron Sights Interviews:Triple Feed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMTc7AE0KaQ&t=384sKayley Gunner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfGqHxCv7Vc&t=522sMike Salemi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq-Nj6M0EBI&t=335sAdam Schafer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiyrdWdO1y8&t=8sSal Di Stefano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBdKdSjQ0BM&t=4425sJason Khalipa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTiq-sID-EMByron Rodgers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrtEyuVNNpwDonnie Oliver: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKY1_TLKHlIChris Cheng: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr0zSGSTzKM&t=2sTraver Boehm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_NLdIg3zBc&t=1394s
