Thoughts?
I really believe chokes are the way to go in a self-defense situation. With that said, leg locks come next. I have used submissions in many real situations, and let me tell you if you armbar a guy and let him up he can kick your ass with one arm. You heel hook him, he doesn't have a leg to stand on, literally.
