Other thread got me thinking. What shooting skillz would current you teach young you if you had a Time Machine? I would work on shotgun/clay birds, carbine drills like 1/2 &1/2 on a timer. Recoil control with both pistol and rifle. Drop compensation techniques for distance shooting. Are you a better shot now than you were when younger? Thread brought to you by the AMU 3 gun team and Scott. Triggering.

As I am particularly skilled at that I could teach young me quite a lot on that subject. I just don't know if it would be time well spent. This thread is about shooting skillz and Triggering.

1200 yard shots on elk ain't my thing.
30 yards and in with a recurve is my thing.

I would work on shotgun/clay birds... THAT... is what every new shooter needs FIRST. Acquire the target... and pull the trigger in real/practical/functional time. The rest is just enhancement of skill.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
