Safest range against unarmed assault and non-ballistic weapons threats out of sight out of mind.

By awareness, threats or danger areas can be avoided.

In situations where an unarmed threat or an armed threat has been identified by tactically discreetly exiting the location you can covertly escape evade and as such avoid a threatrning situation against you.

Pre-evasive primary range 2 metres.

Against the most expedient incoming assault, a combatant with minimal clearance capabilities possibly suffering the effects of an injury will be able to clear the confrontation line as the attacker has to cover 2 metres and the target only has to move 20 to 30 centimeters off of the confrontation line.

Clearly, skill factor and timing enter in the chances of achieving the evasive outcome.

Long-range stamp kicking entry range 1 metre forwards to body contact range.

Employing a stamp entry and assault from inside one metre-out combined with expedient action dirty tricks deception and or distraction will increase the chances of threat neutralization.

Executing the stamp kick component post body line contact from the safety of a hard cover guard with boot to boot contact immediately prior to the stamp kick execution will increase the chance of objective achievement to the maximum.

 Close range striking unarmed offensive assault execution-initiation range from 30 cm in towards point blank body line or boot to boot contact range.

This will enable the initial set up entry and entry strikes to be executed starting from outside arms reach but will make it difficult for your target to avoid entry strikes contact.

Expedient multiple short to medium steps combined with multiple entry strikes create major momentum and a smothering effect on your target.

They will usually try and retreat under contact and their balance going backwards is adversely effected.

Under contact they may be knocked off the initial contact line.

By fast mapping on the move assessment and target alignment adjustments combined with continued increased forward momentum and contact impact velocity you can quickly overwhelm your target.

When multiple entry strikes have achieved their objective of injuring incapacitating off balancing or at minimum interfering with visual and mental focus through contact-distraction you can execute your primary finishing component of your close range striking combination.

The Todd System entry strikes are executed from a side stance and guard and only when your target is adversely effected would you transition to a front stance and guard and deliver your finishing skills.

Always remember military CQC is a military science and not an exact science and human adjustments including under fast mapping on the move decision making may well be required.
