Like NDD was getting at, yeah, it could be a good technique with lots and lots of practice and some luck; but for the down and dirty, why risk missing and just giving the guy a charlie horse? I've seen a whole lot more people go down from getting kicked in the junk than from femoral shock.

Very true but I like to fight like a surgeon operates: Clear, Concise, and effective. Don't get me wrong if it goes to hell I will scrap, gouge eyes (to the second nuckle), pull the groin, spit, scratch whatever it takes to get the job done. But if I have my pick I want to use the most effective, fastest techinques I can to get the job done.

Additionally Dan I have seen guys take full on kicks to the 'junk' and not go down. It was a Martial Arts School in central California, they trained to take full on kicks and punches to the groin without it effecting them. Almost made me wanna puke just watching these guys get lifted off of the ground by forces of these kicks.

Well I guess the concenous is that this is not something I want to put in my toolbag.

Thanks all for the input........anymore would be greatly appericated.
