LOCKING HORNS     (Front headlock)

1.  With your feet in line with each other and your body bent forward (caused by your opponent applying a front headlock using his left arm to lock you with) simultaneously step forward with your right foot toward 11 o'clock into a right wide kneel stance between your opponent's legs, deliver a right underhand reverse handsword to your opponent's groin, have your left hand check just above your opponent's right knee while turning your chin to the left and tucking it against your chest to prevent your opponent from cutting off your air supply.  (Your opponent should loosen his grip and bend forward at the waist.  Depending on the effectiveness of your strike, your opponent's legs can conceivably move back and away from you.)

2.  Immediately follow-up with a right vertical obscure elbow strike to the underside of your opponent's jaw, "with" your left hand still checking the knee, and while keeping low in your right neutral bow.  (This elbow strike should force your opponent's head up in preparation for the next strike.)

3.  After snapping your opponent's jaw upward with your right obscure elbow, simultaneously shuffle forward, deliver a right inward horizontal elbow strike to the left side of your opponent's jaw, along with a left heel palm strike that hooks in and to the right side of your opponent's jaw.  (The force of this sandwich may cause your opponent to pass out and fall to the ground.)

4.  Left front crossover (toward 12 o’clock) into a left front twist stance as your execute a right outward horizontal back knuckle strike to your opponent’s right floating ribs, simultaneous with a left heel palm push-down strike to your opponent’s solar plexus (fingers are horizontal and pointed in).  Your left arm is over that of your right arm.

5.  Without delay, deliver a right knee kick to your opponent’s groin.  This action is done while threading your kick from your left front twist stance.

6.  From the position of your right knee kick, immediately have your right foot stomp your opponent’s right instep.

7.  With your right foot still planted on your opponent’s right foot, have your left foot cross back of your right foot and stomp his left instep.

8.  Left step through reverse, right front crossover, and cover out twice toward 7:30.
