Hi All,
In wing chun we all are trained to be sensitive, I am *hopefully* safely assuming. Hopefully our sensitivity allows us to flow with what ever technique is needed for the situation. It can be argued that it is wrong to force specific techniques to the situation. However, I think there are often several choices we can implement for any given stimulus, again, depending on sensitivity.
With all that out of the way, does any one find themselves using specific techniques more so than others? How about limiting certain techniques? How do these hands affect your wing chun? Meaning, do you do anything specific to set up for these favorote techniques? Is there anything wrong with using favorite techniques?
I myself tend to use a few techniques more so than others. I Use Tok Sau a lot. Often I use it with a grab, that I can't specifically say is a wing chun hand, but it seems to work very well against certain people, and not so well against others. Pak Sau comes out a lot as does Bong Sau. I feel wu sau has saved my life on many occasions, so I tend to rely on it a bit.
I had a problem several years ago where I would throw out bong sau. Every thing would be met with bong sau. It wasn't pretty. So, I decided NOT to use it under almost any occasion, which led to me using it occasionally.
Any thoughts?
Tom
