Episode 4 is all about shooting technique and mental control. Anne, Chris, and a pro instructor walk you through how to train for safe and accurate shots at the shooting range.

#YOUNGHUNTERSGUIDE

How to Master Your First Hunting Shot

In the fourth episode of the #YOUNGHUNTERSGUIDE series, Anne and Chris tackle one of the most important topics for new hunters: the right shooting technique. Together with an experienced shooting coach, they demonstrate on a 100-meter indoor range what it takes to execute a safe, clean, and repeatable shot.

 

Key Topics in This Episode

1. Safe Firearm Handling
Anne and Chris start by reviewing essential safety procedures—from unloading to checking the magazine and action. Safety first!

2. Shooting Position & Stability
Chris trains the symmetrical shooting stance, helping absorb recoil and enabling follow-through. Proper elbow placement and relaxed rifle control make it easier to keep the firearm steady.

3. Breathing & Mental Control
Calm abdominal breathing improves aim and reduces nerves. Slow exhaling allows for a deliberate shot—or the conscious decision not to shoot and keep practicing instead.

4. Trigger Control & Follow-Through
A clean trigger pull without jerking is key. Anne and Chris emphasize the importance of staying on target after the shot—to observe how game reacts and remain in control.

5. Practice at Home and the Range
In addition to using realistic animal targets and shooting sticks, they also demonstrate dry fire practice—perfect for learning safe shooting sequences from home or the raised hide.

The results speak for themselves: tight groupings with GECO ammunition (especially GECO PLUS), even under cold bore and series conditions. Anne and Chris stress how important it is to train regularly with your actual hunting ammo to build confidence.
