Striking Nerves Instead of Pressure Points

Hi All,
As martial artists we have all at one time or another looked into using pressure points as fighting tools to give us an advantage. Truth is it is very hard to strike one or two of these points to cause pain or put someone down. These are not striking points you have to apply pressure to activate them, this takes time and in a fight that's something you might not have. So instead of trying to drop someone with pressure points, try striking the nerves that are located all over the human body. We all know that buzz you get when you bang your elbow on the "funny bone " behind the elbow that's a nerve. So you should target areas that you know cause pain, if it hurts you then it will hurt your opponent also. If you read some of the techniques I post you will probably figure out that the strikes are to vital areas. Since most are Kung Fu San Soo techniques they are designed to disrupt the central nervous system and put your opponent down fast. So think about what you are doing when you practice your techniques.

Try this technique:
Some one grabs you with both hands by the shirt, now since he has both hands occupied he is one that is defenseless. Reach over with your left hand and grab left wrist on top and use your left fore arm to bend both of his arms at the elbow (to bring him closer) , now right open hand palm to his left ear when you compress the air in someones ear the nerves inside will register PAIN,step slightly back with your right foot , turn to your left and right shin kick to the inside of
his right leg just above the knee(nerves there), bring your leg back and heel kick to the inside of his left leg just above the knee(nerves there) plus this will spread his legs wide, step down with your right foot turn back to face him and left shin kick into the groin lots of nerves there, now step down and thru him and push him down letting go of his arms.

Also I'm adding some chapters to my book, The Use of Lines, Angles, & Circles in Hand to hand Combat. There will be a section on Sticking Fighting and Knife Fighting , showing how you use the lines of movement in those two areas of fighting.
