No, you guys got me there. Jujutsu was the word I was looking for. You'll have to excuse the my non-specific wording/ignorance, but I'm sure we can all agree that judo-like techniques can serve as a liable synonym. Just as saying a dirtbike is "motorcycle-like" (when referring to cruisers/crotch-rockets). Jui jutsu was the wording I was looking for, no argument there.
My posting was drivel because I used the word drivel as an adjective? If so, sorry my grammar tweaked a nerve. If it was my non-specific wording, well I covered that. "Judo-like" technique is in the ball park of the word jui-jutsu, so let's not get hung up on wording and focus on my main point:
Well, I assume you are a black belt in Judo, so I am surprised you do not know this yourself. If you're going to argue that it was ju-jutsu used and not Judo in samurai battle tactics, then you are correct. But do not forget that I wrote "JUDO-like," and meant jujutsu, because jujutsu is unarguably "JUDO-like." My original post was to acknowledge that these variations, thus "JUDO-like," ju-jutsu techniques were indeed deadly, and although made SAFER, are still not entirely SAFE.
Here is the geocites site with an awful color scheme and a wall of poorly spell checked text as historical proof that "JUDO-like" techniques were used as a part of samurai battle tactics.
EDIT: If you don't consider the National Geographic as a credible source, well, I'm unsure what your definition of "credible" is.Last edited by PowerfulFellow; 11/25/2011 2:04pm at . Reason: Additional Information on Source

BJJ might make you a better ground fighter, but Judo will make you a better dancer.
