Haz, old sport, you brought up a good topic.
I have been playing the 'what if' game for years (especially the last five).
I am right handed and carry on my right hip, slightly rearward. I'm a good sized fellow so it is easy to conceal this way.
The hitch is, I often have to use a walking cane for assistance, particularly on uneven terrain. I use the cane with my right hand also. So, therefore I have had to implement my own set of defensive strategies and 'what if scenarios' to try and cover all the bases.
For example, if attacked, I am not physically able to run or seek cover rapidly (thank Heavens for the Castle Doctrine) so I am relegated to stand my ground and ward off the attack or threat. So I practice ditching the cane and drawing from concealment regularly, and from various angles. I also practice using the cane as a weapon.
I am in a constant state of awareness concerning my surroundings because bad people prey on those they perceive as 'weak' such as a person with a cane.

Good topic.....hope there is a lot of discussion on this........ 8).

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Yessir....I got one......an old man who was going through physical therapy at the same time as I was gave me one.
I don't have a clue as to the type of wood it is, but I'd hate to get hit with it.
Oh, hell, I'd hate to get hit with ANY stick....but you know what I mean.
