Can't wait. Have you tried breaking it into a lecture format or a journal perhaps? Then assemble it from there? helps keep your current information fresh.
There is a lot of criticism about disorganized information and poor flow. I have edited a few texts and 1 published book. Happy to help a CLF bro if I can...?

I want to make a clarification since Frank asked me personally and I didn't explain.
I did NOT imply charp chui is only back hand punch.
I said the jab, found in boxing, is limited to being a pure lead hand punch. A reverse punch is not a jab. Etc, etc.
I was saying the charp chui is not limited to being a lead hand punch, although most of the times it seems to be thrown off the lead hand.
It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.

I think the beauty of the charp choy is in its extension, and in its non-linear trajectory, which makes it very deceptive. The fact that it does not have to hit hard to inflict damage and pain allows it to be quicker, change direction, come in repeatly, again adding to its deceptive qualities.
In Siu-Lum Kuen, the leopard's mindset is one of craftiness. Quick, sneaky, deceptive, and explosive. And its main weapon is the charp choy.
If one has an understanding of this usage, then replacing the charp choy with a blade, and you have formidible knifefighting technique.

well...Stabbing is usually done in a linear fashion isn't it? Hence the name Stab Punch (Chop Choy). it's not about the fist shape but indeed about the idea of stabbing.If one has an understanding of this usage, then replacing the charp choy with a blade, and you have formidible knifefighting technique.
It is a sneaky strike. its a must to completely understand the essence of the strike then work on applying it based on your comprehension of the technique.

As I use tsap choi, the application is similar to that of a rope dart. It is interchangeable and may be played off either hand. It stabs with speed and when thrown properly it impacts with penetrating force.
My general application isn't to lead with tsap choi; rather, to set it up in 1-2 movements. Bak Hsing uses tsap choi in combination with certain fighting concepts <-- plural. By itself or as a stand alone fist shape, it is not a Bak Hsing tsap choi. This is the primary difference in its use. Tsap choi is a weapon used in a specific manner within a greater context. This context involves the entire body of the practitioner to that of one's opponent.
People fail to appreciate the extent of the difference of the Bak Hsing practitioner. Even the way a pracitioner uses tsap choi is different than a disciple in my lineage. The practitioner may use it well and enjoy success (because of our over-all fighting philosophy), but without the entire picture the value is diminished. So bend them knuckles and strengthen your hands and strike the heavy bag..you do yours and I'll do mine.

Chop Choi means "Peircing Jab", not leapard fist. the shape of the fist aids the strike and the penetration, but the chop choi is a result of body mechanics and momentum of delivery. The peirce is qualitatively differnt from a hook, in delivery and effect. All punches are excellent but the effect/damage they cause is differnt.
