[QUOTE="brcfo_outdoors, post: 2296255, member: 113623"] When it comes to quality marksmanship, I am going to say that practice and experience trumps all. Just because someone is in 4-H, law enforcement/military, or has taken a class in no way makes up for time spent behind the trigger. I think the easiest way to confirm that is to look at ourselves and our own progress. Consider your skill level now and compare it to how you were 5 years ago, 10 years ago, etc. Certainly inherent skill plays a role as some people simply have a knack for shooting and others do not. I firmly believe that true marksmanship is a constant evolution of aspiring for precision, pushing one's boundaries, and learning from one's mistakes. While a 14 year old may show some skill and potential, they have to develop that over years to reach a level of excellence. [/QUOTE]
