I have a one and a half inch gap between the two for accuracy training. I train with 28" , 30", 40" sticks. Cheap and effective. I also rigged an "arm" with a small 2" sapling that I can move to different levels just moving to different holes drilled into the tree. It gives me plenty training options for very little cost. --- Brian Phillips wrote: > Hello all, > I train Arnis in VA Beach.
