It wasn´t my meaning to criticize your english spelling.. I am not a good english-speller myself... I just mean, that some of the techniques you learn in karate, are old and can maybe not directly be set in in a fight situation. But whether you train for example karate, kung fu or boxing, it will always help alot, when you are in a real fight. If you can use the right techniques effective at the right time, you have a good chance to beat opponent - but it takes a lot of practising. If you only concentrate on making a technique, you´ve just learned to karate, when you are in a fight, your opponent may find out and prepare a counter-attack. - Yes, I always use the experience/muscles, I gained from karate (in some way), when I fight... and I think everyone does

When an experienced karate-ka want to punch someone (even if it is just for fun) he would naturally use the karate-punch, because he knows how to control the punch. If you have learned to write error-free english, you would naturally write error-free If you, when in a fight say: "Okay, he is a very good fighter, I must use that difficult punch, my karate-teacher showed me... hmm.. let´s see" then you need more practice. Can you say "I didn´t use karate on him", if you twisted your arm while punching him? If an experienced karate-ka fights with a free mind, he always uses his karate-experience in some way, for example in punching, footwork, breathing or whatever.

The kata called "Jitte" or "Jutte" has some bo staff-moves in it. http://jka.uchicago.edu/Video/Jitte-new.mpeg
