Learn How to Handle a Firearm
It doesn’t have to be a freaking .50 cal machine gun. Small arms will do.Everyone should have the knowledge of handling a firearm. A .45 or 9mm pistol will do, for starters. But if you want stronger firepower, learn how to handle Shotguns and Rifles.
Learn How To Use A Melee Weapon
Coz if you run out of bullets, this will be your last resort.Here’s a list of potential zombie killing melee weapons.
1. Baseball Bat/Cricket Bat
2. Machete
3. Crowbar
4. Wood Axe/Fire Axe/Hatchet
5. Ax Handle
6. Wooden Club (a hardwood stick, tree branch, etc)
7. Steel Pipe
These are just few of the weapons you can find in your home.
Remember, to be efficient with a melee weapon, you must train your muscles for it. Try practicing your choice of weapon with different angles of attacking motion. Develop muscle memory.
So you got a weapon? Use it right!
Don’t just swing it like an idiot. Chances are, you’re just gonna hurt yourself or other people. Learn how to swing it properly. Know your targets and when to strike.Attacking Motions
Horizontal Strike to the Head (left or right)- with a blunt object like Baseball Bat, Steel Pipe, a Stick, etc. Or bladed weapons like Machete, Sword, etc.
Horizontal Strike to the Neck (left or right)- with a Machete, Sword, or other long bladed weapons
Impalement - If you have piercing weapon/object of some sort like Spears, home made spears, crowbars, long pointed knife. Stab the bastard in the head for instant death.
Limb Destruction
The head is not the only target. Breaking the limbs, especially the legs will slow down a zombie. Break them knees with baseball bats and other heavy blunt objects. Cut their legs and arms with blades. Its easier to decapitate a disabled zombie.
When To Strike
You don’t just swing away when you see a zombie coming, unless you have no other choice.
Carefully time your strikes. Use other objects as distractions. Sidestep them and strike at their most vulnerable angle.
Conserve your energy. Because swinging a heavy melee weapon is more tiring compared to shooting a gun. Remember: one hit, one kill.
Where are you going to go?
So, in a zombie apocalypse, where are you going to go?One main thing I like to think of is rural areas or cities.
They each have advantages-
Rural-
Advantages-
1-Probably less likely to run into zombies as less people were around (unless your near a graveyard, which is a pretty big no-no)
2-You could find a farm and keep animals for company and food.
3-Less likely to run into people which may try to loot or rob you, or possibly kill you. Or maybe worse in the long run, group up with you (which equals less food and they may hinder you if you have to get away fast)
Disadvantages-
1-It may be harder to find food! In a city you have shops and homes to loot, so bear this in mind when choosing an area.
2-If your on a farm, animals may be infected. Bad news…
3-Less places to hide in a field than in a mall for instance.
Cities-
Advantages-
1-Easy to find resources/food
2-Lots of places to hide, and live.
3-If oyu like grouping up with people, you can bet your chances in the city.
Disadvantages-
1-MUCH more likely to run into zombies.
2-A lot of homes have a chance of having zombies in them.
3-Never at your safest. (sewers could be full of zombies, whats behind that building, etc…)
