Ken, Funny, that we were taught the same move in Zipota(DDLR)... a fair "proper" attack and then *bang*!.... One ofe my fav's Dirk ... elbow on ... spaced...if...
Donnelly's lead off in his book seems to be unique out of all the manuals I have read in that he says you should strike with the palm up and the elbow down....
... It's been a while since I read Donnelly, but, ims, his lead off was intended to be a distraction and/or setup for something else. It's not a power punch,...
... I've never read Donnelly. So, I can't comment specifically on your interpretation of the text. However, mechanically the wrist and the elbow need to be...
... Not completely true. A backfist or hammerfist functions perfectly well without the wrist and elbow being aligned with the direction of force. In fact,...
... I doubt it quite a lot. Most styles that use a backfist deliver it horizontally to targets like the temple or cheekbone. In those cases the palm does not...
... Hey everybody. First Donnnelly's attitude is much like the traditional lpr stance except that he has the right toe in line with the left heel, the right...
... Thank you for the description. Unfortunately, now the picture is only less clear to me. If the arm is extended while partially supinated (Elbow in, palm...

I hold the same opinion of Donnelly's attitude as Mr. Pfrenger does. Holding the forearm parralel to the ground like Donnelly does and throwing out the left...
