Weaponry!

[Orphen]

Well it's not really to show off, it's really quite good practice, of course there's a difference between tournament fighting and actual fighting, if you realize that you could be fine. I think you seem like the person who'd take a hit to give one, so I couldn't say if you'd be good tournament style or not.

Speaking of wepons, however, I got mine taken away, I kinda' cracked my brother over the head with my graphite bo when he punched me in the nuts, REALLY hard. And it cut his head open, and it gave everyone a scare because there was a lot of blood, and of course ALL head wounds have a lot of blood, so yeah..... <<; hopefully it doesn't make me sound crazy, but that hurt so bad I couldn't think straight, and I just happened to have the bo in my hand.

On a side note, I'm getting 00b3rly better in fighting, I'm learning to 'unleash that dragon'....*Pablo Francisco joke* But we're taught restraint on our power due to sparing young children, but against the black belts I can start to distinguish that I don't need to stop when I hit....I round house kicked one of our black belts, Dale Miller, whom has twenty years experience, and is like 3rd RSKC ranked in his division....So yeah, that was a full force round house to the head. Chuck Norris would've cried....

Orphen, should this thread just be renamed 'martial arts'? XD

Nah. Martial arts are still a weapon.

I guess I wouldn't really be able to get used to tournament fighting, as yes, I would be one to take a hit, regardless of the strength, to give one of equal strength, granted I have a very high constitution. Most of my situations to "practice" have been very real and were not so formal as tournament fighting, so I learned how to fight people in very real situations that I feel to have been probably the best training. Not all people much have that luxury, though.

Well, I still have my weapons because I didn't try to slaughter my brother. XD

Jimbo, that sounds like fun, and that's how I am, I hardly feel pain, honestly. I broke my ankle a long while back and kept walking on it anyway because I didn't realize. I can jump really high, but 20 ft? What the hell?
