[Sandy Abel · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book seemed like it was a copied and pasted together. It was a little hard to follow but I'm finding this author is not the best writer. He is very knowledgable but the content jumps from here to there. The more I read his books and gain more knowledge of training, I get used to it and can follow a little better.
