Goals & Gains The MilkMan Delivers: The Road to 40

It went well thanks, approx 50 of us on the mat, including some GB players and Olympians, always a humbling experience going with some of those guys, but managed to hit some throws I've been working on against the lower grades (of which I am one!).

Dang, sounds like you are in a great club. What's your go to throw?

I have recently become a big fan of the soto makikomi, and have been having a fair bit of success with it. I also like tani otoshi and hiza guruma. How about you?

Probably uchimata. But I also like a collar grip seoi nage and also collar grip soto makikomi.
For the latter two: I'm right handed, but I'll grab their right collar with my left hand. Aggressively feint like I'm trying to get a left handed uchimata and like I'm trying to grab their left sleeve, but suddenly turn 180 against the grain for the right handed throw seoi or makikomi. :)
It was working pretty good in BJJ, but in Judo it's obviously a lot harder to fool people with a parlor trick like that.
I suck at hiza, any tips appreciated.
