Hojutsu-Ryu, the Art of Shooting
Firearms have been with us since about 1100
A.D. Bamboo tubes, wrapped in resin-soaked
fibers, gave way to copper, iron, and steel tubes. Ignition systems have progressed from a hot
iron pushed through a hole to electronic triggers. Bore diameter has ranged from .17 inches to
twenty inches.
The use of firearms has always been a martial
art. Martial, or military, usage is the
primary reason for the development and improvement of firearms. Sporting uses, such as hunting and
competition, naturally followed, but firearms are primarily weapons for
combat. When developing the art of
Hojutsu, we looked at combat-proven techniques of utilizing firearms.
No other
firearms training system can claim the combat effectiveness of the Modern
Technique. It is widely used by S.W.A.T.
teams from Arizona to Alaska. Statistics
show hit averages over 99% by some agencies using this training system; far
above the national average of hits by police officers. 23 practitioners (Hojutsu-ka)
have shot 21 men, with a documented hit rate of 99.3%; the 13 who shot pistols
had 100% accuracy and 100% fatalities. There are other styles of shooting that
work well in competition, but none as well in actual fights. Our arena is the
street, not the competition range.
Hojutsu is taking the use of firearms and blending
it with “traditional” empty hand techniques. The true master will know his weapons
intimately. He will know by feel and sound the status of his weapon, and if a
problem occurs, he will fix it without thought.
He understands that there is no “ultimate” martial art—each has its
advantages and its place. He will be
able to dominate the confrontation from flat on his back to 300 meters out.
The Hojutsu practitioner will never need to worry what to do in
confrontation—it will have already happened.
