CORE TARGETS There are
10 primary targets in the IDX system. They are the eyes, ears, chin, throat/neck,
solar pled, kidneys, groin, knees, shins, and top of the feet. There are also secondary targets that can
be used. The full list of appropriate
targets is included in the “Target Indexing” section later in this
manual. By the
time you have made your second movement in an encounter you need to have hit
at least one core target. If you
haven’t attacked one of these targets then your enemy’s chance of recovering
from your attack and counter striking drastically increases. The
primary targets can be divided into 3 categories: Priority 1, 2 and 3. Priority 4 targets are all of the remaining
targets discussed in the “Target Indexing section. ·
Priority 1 (Vital) Targets – These targets can immediately end a
situation and have the risk of permanent injury. o
Eyes o
Throat/Neck ·
Priority 2 (Equalizing) Targets – These targets can be used
effectively by a smaller/weaker person on a larger one (i.e. kids and women
against men). o
Ears o
Groin o
Shins ·
Priority 3 (Debilitating) Targets – These targets can cause
unconsciousness, dizziness, loss of “wind”, broken joints or distracting
pain. They can be fight-enders or used
to setup additional strikes. o
Chin o
Solar Plexus o
Kidneys o
Knees o
Top of Foot
