Advanced sabre fencing is not just about speed-it is about control. This book takes you beyond basic technique and into the tactical side of sabre, where bouts are decided by timing, distance, decision-making, and strategy. Whether you are a competitive fencer, a coach, or a dedicated student of the sport, this guide shows you how to think, adapt, and perform at a higher level. Inside, you will learn how to: - Control distance and dictate when exchanges happen - Use tempo, deception, and second intention to outthink opponents - Take and break right-of-way with clarity and confidence - Recognize patterns and exploit predictable behavior - Build a personal fencing style that fits your strengths - Train tactics effectively during practice and open fencing - Perform consistently under pressure in real competition This is not a book of drills alone. It is a complete system for understanding how sabre bouts are won. If you want to move from reacting to controlling the bout-this book will show you how. Part of the Fencing at Home Series.
