Just wondering those of you who pracitice Shisochin kata how do you bunkai the first three spearhands . In the kata when you strike chudan level wiht the spearhand would you strike the solor plexis or to the throat ?
As a side note I have been running this kata for about 3 years now and wihtout a doubt it has become my favorate does anyone elese feel this way ?

I think it's to the solor plexis, but im not positive. Ill check in with my Sensei Tuesday if no one has replied, and let you know if you'd like.

I think it's a great kata... and I've always been taught it's to the solar plexus.

I do not practice this kata in shotokan, however in bunkai there are no set rules of application. It just has to work for you. I would think the target applications wise would depend on the size of the attacker. If you cant reach his throat go for the solar plexus if hes smaller dont reach down go for the throat. If it is a real life situation and you fear for your life always go for the most vital target.(in this case the throat  )

I asked my Sensei, the way they teach it to us, it's used on the solor plexis.
