 1. Motion: Retreat backward to get an opponent moving in toward you. Lower your level, then shoot as he moves into you. This will create a combined velocity that makes it difficult for your opponent to successfully resist the shot.

2. Angle: Step out to one side to create and angle on your opponent. A wise angle to work with is the one in which your step outside your opponent's lead hand. This position puts you in a relatively safe place and marked the shot easier.

3.Range: Step into contact range, thus giving your opponent the opportunity to strike. As he commits to strike, lower your level and shoot into the takedown.

4. Striking: By attacking your opponent with strikes, you preoccupy him with defense and thus make the task of shooting into a takedown much easier. The jab is the best strike to set up shorts, but fighters have also used the rear cross and various kicks with some degree of success.
