With regards to 'Bear and the Ram', where does the Ram come from 
From previous experience, all of the Ram techniques that I know indicate a tackle of some kind, yet in this case the person acting as the ram is doing a right punch..?
Why is it not called 'Bear and the Mace' for example?
I was wondering if this was because of some historical reason, or maybe because of an application that I've overlooked (this is a 1st Dan technique in my syllabus, so I've only just coem accross it, and haven't had chance to properly mull it over yet!).
Thankyou,
Ian.
