My 16-year old son definitely enjoys rapid fire, but also enjoys plinking and keeping soda cans rolling. He also enjoys hunting a lot - practically lives for it - and so knows when he has to take care. As he has been making head shots on jack rabbits at various ranges with open sights with his .22, drops to a knee or sitting when he can, etc I think he understands the importance of marksmanship. He also gets a bit competitive with me on targets and is upset when I always beat him.
