However, from what I have been told it consists of simply darting into range, I'm not concerned about the take down, its the move into range where I'd consider someone vulnerable.

 

Alright, I see what you're trying to get at. The timing on it is important.

 

You can set up an opening or creat one, on a fairly untrained guy you can oftne just do it as they won't expect it.

 

It can be set up with strikes, jab cross shoot.

 

I can wait for you to initiate something and then go before you can recover. You initate a kick, I shoot.

 

But like with everything, the timing is impotant. Same for striking, if you throw a kick, you are vulnerable while that leg is out. If you throw a hooking punch, you risk having the other guy go under it and into a clinch or takedown.

Shootfighting is a combative style, no forms, no fancy stances, and no flashy kicks. The style consists of striking and grappling, many shootfighters have been known to shoot, clinch and takedown from 15 feet away from their opponent. If you want to learn how to fight in MMA or on the streets then shootfighting is for you!

Limits Are Not Accepted. They Are Elbowed, Kicked And Punched.

some of you people are making it sound like shootfighters only dive at your legs :lol: theres alot of striking too

So a shoot tends to be more reactive than active, as in you wait for, or create, an opening and then react to that?

exactly right. its not all about just going after someones legs. theres alot of striking and if theres an opening, thats when you shoot. and just because your both on the ground doesn't mean you only grapple. thats what i like about shootfighting, theres a balance between striking and grappling.

I wouldn't say that, it just can be used in that way. But you don't shoot unless there is an opening. Same as you don't punch if there isn't an opening.

Of course, They describe it as a hybrid of Muay Thai and submission Wrestling. The thread just got sidetracked on the ideas of shooting.
