I have a question about open guard. When I'm playing guard, I first get control of one sleeve and make sure that they don't have control of my legs but when I get go down and put my feet on their biceps they still end up getting control and I either end up getting passed or I have to retain my guard. Is there something else I'm missing? I feel like I should be aiming to put my feet on their hips but I'm not sure.
