KNOCKuOUT Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Has anyone ever heard/know anything on Professor Carter Hargrave? I checked out his website and he is the president of the world jeet kune do federation, which is allegedly the world's largest jkd orgnization. But I've read up on this guy and everything I find says he's a fraud. What's the deal?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Hmm, I had not heard of him. That is interesting. If there is that much negativity, I think that I would be warry.Welcome to the Forums! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNOCKuOUT Posted May 27, 2007 Author Share Posted May 27, 2007 Yea, that's what I figured. He's supposedly huge in the martial arts world but no one has ever heard of him and there is no record of his training prior to 1992, but some how he's a grandmaster. I ordered one of his jeet kune do DVD's and was seriously dissapointed. I mean the material was for real but I just feel like I was ripped off. It seemed like such a cheaply made video and he even goofs around a little in it. Forget that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps1 Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Hopefully the video was not a complete waste. Were you able to learn some good things from it? "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNOCKuOUT Posted May 27, 2007 Author Share Posted May 27, 2007 Well it was just the very basics of jeet kune do. In fact, he even has more videos and I can see that everything he teaches seems to be legit, but since he himself seems not to be, I'm not sure if I really want to be involved with some one like that.
