The pulse point is always good, as the vessels are near hard, flat surfaces.. Also, depending on the musculature and arm diameter of the patient, I've been able to strongly occlude blood supply by compressing the brachial artery just about the elbow and below the bulge of the bicep. This works a lot better with thin patients than with obese patients.
