WHISKEY STICK FACTION

Doyle Irish Stick Fighting (nicknamed Rince an Bata Uisce Bheatha, or "Dance of the Whiskey Stick") is a devastatingly effective two-handed combative system developed well over 200 years ago by the Doyle family in Ireland. This system was brought to Canada in the early 1800s via a Doyle who settled in the rough and tumble landscape of the Atlantic's Newfoundland coast.

​

The Whiskey Stick Faction is named out of respect for the history of the Doyle system.
