Sho-ju Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 I emailed Sifu Doyle asking about Irish stick and he said they are going to release a DVD set. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. http://www.geocities.com/glendoyle/bata/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Gwinn Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 Oooh, what a cool Christmas present. I'm an Irishman and a woefully inadequate stick fighter; it's perfect. ____________________________________* Ignorant Taekwondo beginner.http://www.thefiringline.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho-ju Posted November 29, 2003 Author Share Posted November 29, 2003 I finally got to do some Irish bata, single stick. It was very interesting. The shillegah is a very easy weapon to swing, but the blocks take a lot of work on timing. We did 6 strike drills for about 1 hour with and without partners, and then 10 strike drills solo. I was suprised by how light the shillegah are, but how dense and durable the wood is. Cool weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treebranch Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 Very interesting indeed. Very cool!

empty_cup Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 That looks really interesting. The good thing about it, is that the stick punch conditions your forearms Beat your opponent and condition yourself in one step!
