The 2nd Grip on the Cane and Three Miscellaneous Strikes at Punching Distance

http://youtu.be/ghftJBtwPII

*WARNING* These strikes look like nothing but they can inflict serious damage. Also, the strikes themselves are quite challenging and must be learned from an expert and practiced correctly under supervision. What is shown here is nothing more than an entertaining video where these strikes are shown briefly. This does NOT constitute instruction in any way.

These three strikes require a strong grip to begin with or the practitioner risks the very real danger of hurting themselves.

The first uses the hook point of the Sheppard’s hook in a horizontal hook fashion (as shown on the video).

The second has the Cane upright with the end in the air. I use the hook as a weapon. This is the most challenging of the strikes. The risk to hand and wrist is very real.

The third strike is a thrust with the end and because it is done one handed at close range; it tends to feel like there is nothing to this. This is a powerful strike and should not be taken lightly!

Without prejudice
