Since my heart attack in 2016 I walk with a staff when hiking(my commmunist state doesnt allow carry). These videos really help me. Thanks

[@TheModernDefender]

You're welcome and I'm happy to hear they're helpful. Thank you.

[@stephen8433]

@@TheModernDefender Which state is it that won't allow you with a firearm. That state is endangering your life.

[@TheModernDefender]

I agree, Stephen

[@gregmoore6298]

Carry anyway. Bad guys do.

[@bobodean1]

@@stephen8433 Up until recently Maryland..my state..made it nearly impossible. Now..I have a carry permit. I will utilize my stick initially..but if the situation warrants it the gun is there. And I practice with a blue gun

[@ExtremeGamer217]

I Find These video's Very Helpful!!

[@TheModernDefender]

Glad to hear that!

[@tonyso9637]

like the way you talk - innocent, defense with skill (something like this)

[@deafsmith1006]

While I live in Texas... been in martial arts for 40 years, IPSC/IDPA pistol competition for 25 years, attended multiple schools, and, of course, I have my CHL/LTC license still this is an excellent practical guide to SD with a walking stick (and I hike to!) I probably will have a gun but... I like the walking stick option to!

[@TheModernDefender]

Thanks bro

[@flynnjaman]

I’ve actually placed my gun at the tip of the walker, now using it as a sort of handle, so I have the best of both worlds ANNDDD I looks like a character from Final Fantasy 8! The downside is that every once in awhile I accidentally pull the trigger & put a hold in the earth 😢. Love the vids. Helping this Muay Thai noob reach his goal of becoming a real life cartoon character.

[@chuckg2016]

really like your targeting the neck. So effective.

[@TheModernDefender]

yes it is, thank you!

[@BlueOx2277]

Love these vids, so informative👍🏻 Question- So if an attacker lowers his chin, making a strike to the neck difficult- wouldn’t a good hard whack across the eyes or to the temple be a good option? Or should one just break said attacker’s chin while swinging for the throat? Subscribed!

[@m.b.mcknight7683]

I like learning techniques using staffs for self defense because they can also be beneficial for cane self defense. I prefer having a cane when in public areas they are not seen as a weapon and are the perfect covert defense tool.

[@DIOSKAZE]

Thanks for adding this video. A very good perspective.

[@TheModernDefender]

Glad you liked it! Thank you!

[@nickhammer6408]

Great video brother. You wack a dude across the throat like that, Game over ! Or he's got one tough Adama Apple.

[@aandavaz708]

Him: "I'm not trying to kill them" Also him: Swinging the staff at 60 mph at their throats In all seriousness, I love the video, man. Subbed.

[@TheModernDefender]

LOL thanks man. I appreciate it.

This is the guy you want watching your back when the Zombies come calling.

[@beatbox_boss3664]

Savage video. Being an innocent party is so important. 🤙🏻💪

[@TheModernDefender]

You know it!

[@ricardocosta759]

Great job!

[@TheModernDefender]

Thanks, Rick!

[@Predatorhumanhunter]

Reality is Always different but He is right with practicing handle the Stick and Take Care of the First enemy and the sec. next. Not both at once

[@TheModernDefender]

Agree, reality is different. The only way to be prepared is to train.

[@desertdispatch]

I need a good walking stick like that

[@TheModernDefender]

Stay tuned, I'm launching my own line of walking sticks very soon. Thanks for your comment!

[@VTPSTTU]

Thanks for the video. You seem to be making thrusts in order to get your bags to move, but I can't tell whether you are advocating thrusts as part of self-defense. Should someone try to thrust hard to the gut to lower the attacker's hands?

[@Desperado3248]

Good targets to cause pain and immobilize are the inside of the knee, it will cause lasting pain and immobility, and for your high strike, hit the clavicle. It is an easy bone to break , and I use it with Han bo to take out a violent or knife armed attacker out. Once broken the arm and usually the attacker is out of the fight

[@TheModernDefender]

Roger that!

[@arlosmith9504]

Wow. Sounds like you get into a lot of fights.

[@Desperado3248]

Just years of training

[@hktepochcalli1481]

in regard to the walking stick, what type of wood is the stick made of?

[@jamesgroves5294]

Nice video🇺🇸

[@philbuck365]

thank you for your video's . what is the ideal length of the walking stick?

[@TheModernDefender]

Mid chest level

[@tacticalceo685]

Great video just found your channel going to watch more of your videos where can I purchase A Walkingstick like that or do you sell them or if you could recommend a link to where I can get one please .

[@TheModernDefender]

I will be posting info this week or next on that. I'll keep you posted

[@carldaugherty8981]

The hand positions are kind of like the difference between batting right-handed or left-handed with a baseball bat? I'm 84 and I can still swing pretty good. I'm in the woods about four days a week with my dogs. They give me some prep time but I carry as well.

[@TheModernDefender]

Always keep your tools on you! Thanks for watching.

[@davereade4017]

Will a thick brush handle do

[@GOBRAGH2]

Is that a rattan stick or an oak stick?

[@kevinhiggenbottom8339]

It's me again I left you a message earlier where can I get these hiking sticks at your using now they have to be very very very strong and sturdy to where I can break a bone or at least heard of just enough where they go down and for me to maybe take off running and I needed to be not really thick hiking sticks I wanted to fit my hand just right this is how tall I would like to have three hiking sticks 5'6" 5'7" I do not want no design in the hiking stick because I have something better that I can be creative with my hiking sticks in what type of wood is it cuz you're hitting those bags very hard with your hiking stick and is not breaking it all that's the kind of hiking stick I would like to have can we get this on eBay wish or Amazon and how much are these hiking sticks

[@dedrabbit848]

Kingfisherwoodworks enhanced Appalachian Hickory jo. It’s pricey but it’s great quality.

[@waynethebarber1095]

A tool. Your gun ....

[@MultiEastwood]

How is the selfdefense by a dog?

[@hktepochcalli1481]

can anyone carry a cane anywhere. how about a stick? sticks illegal on the street?

[@johnnywishbone932]

Put a rubber grip on the bottom now it’s a “walking aid”

[@hktepochcalli1481]

@@johnnywishbone932 Good Idea..Thank You Bro...

[@tomdonaghy8625]

My walking staff is there firstly as a walking staff, and I think more time should be spent learning how best to walk with one. Many people new to a waling staff have no idea and give up on them. Having said that, it is there for aggressive dogs, and weirdoh"s. I am just out for for some exercise, not really looking for trouble. The walking staff has to perform firstly as a walking staff. is all I am saying. the rest is nice but not primary.
