Taiji push-hands can be used to develop many valuable skill. It's a good starting point but most people treat it as the ending point. The funny thing is you will still see an 80 years old man doing PH as if he refuses to graduate from elementary school (or high school).
Also too much restriction has been added into the Taiji PH which restrict that format to be expanded.

Or maybe because they're not using their "tools" to their fullest potential and had never got pass the missionary position- just like the misguided notion that the Tan Sao can effectively nullify an hook punch.

Very good points. So thats Why maybe WC tools are better in an evironment where you the ref doesn't break you up every time your in a clinch. Maybe he needs to be in a competiton that allows for punches as well as kicks, leg sweeps and take down throws.
How does your chi sau (drill) relate to fighting? How does your ability to do chi sau benefit you when you fight? From what you wrote it sounds like practicing chi sau just makes you better at chi sau and not fighting?
I competed in full and semi contact kick boxing for 8 years mate in the World Allstyles Kickboxing Organization! If I thought VT was kick-boxing I may as well have stayed.
My chi sau skirmishes are a means to an end for developing not fighting.
You already knew that though didn't you chump?
You have nor surpassed everybody as being the biggest nob_cheese on this forum.

Wing Chun guy gets owned video.....
Since there are only two people fighting in any competition the loser gets "owned'?
So that means all the famous boxers, MMA fighters, etc., that lose got owned.
Well, I will say this. At least they had the cojones to get in there in the first place.

Agreed, it takes courage to fight. But there are several variables of why he could of lost. But either way hopefully the wing chun fighter trains hard and learns from his mistakes.Wing Chun guy gets owned video.....

Even in my short time of training ,I see this is all to present in many styles of fighting refusing to expand or to add for self preservation instead of growing and developing from there base.It seems when some thing becomes codified it becomes a art not a combat system any more.You are so right YouKnowWho
Wing Chun Fighter
it all depends on person reason for studing the art...
Is it purely to fight? Or is it purely for the art...or is it a little of both?

Wing Chun is both defensive and offensive as are ALL martial arts. Anyone who says that an art is only offensive is delusional at best. Anyone can get caught off guard and be put in defensive mode. That premise works in both individual and group combat. Just read the Art of War which most military people do.
Wing Chun Fighter
I agree...but the intent on the article is to share WC is offensive because its main intent is to attack first...where as aikido or tai chi waits for an opponents attack...
A defensive fighter is more of counter type of guy...where WC is more offensive an attack first...WC has both defenses and attacks. But the key to WC is aggression ie attack aka offense.
Tai Chi is more passive aggressive. It awaits on an opponents aggression turns it around on him...ie defends attacks first aka defensive...
