The Smack and Hack

The "Smack and Hack" is one of my favorite techniques used as an entry to blast. The smack prevents the attacker's jab and the lowered head protects from a rear hand shot. The hack alone can often drop an attacker, and there are a great many effective follow-ups from the resulting position. Be sure to drive the attacker back with a step through, after the initial hack.
