Butterfly guard basics will take you a long way, and once you start playing the overhook game, you have a powerful and comprehensive butterfly guard that will annoy and perplex your partners. However, there's another really important direction (and distance) from which you can attack: the arm drag. We've covered arm drags from closed guard, but butterfly is fundamentally different, and readily accessible for you. Let's take a look at a very clean, simple attack to begin with, and then discuss some options when that approach isn't working for you.

I personally like to grip really high almost close from the armpit, I get more traction, is like im getting glue to him, I have a very hard time if im gripping right above the elbow when sweets starts to come out..
