Good post about "starters"
I did a scratch post about starters, safety, and accuracy way back some months here on a FR thread
Like most things the best thing is to start really young and learn from experience shooters and hunters
Small caliber
Target practice
Night hunt rabbits in tall pasture grass without nailing your buddies, the horses, or the Brahmas
It becomes instinctive
Like fastpitch softball or football
Aiming is automatic and accuracy expected
It made those night firing exercises at Jackson easy and helped train others to survive
Interesting how many of those books and articles are so similiar
Coop has some good stuff out there too
But solid experience over time is the real deal
Handgun draws are a whole other thing
Some can get off several well placed shots as their arm comes up
Be careful learning that
Got so I never hunted small game in daylight; no challenge and too easy
Don't miss those military rifles a bit
Colts mostly now, early vintages
Golden oldies in more ways then one
Safe shooting gang
Some good deer hunting in the NC Smoky Mountains
Gut 'em and hang 'em quick
I do prefer antelope for taste, overnight in wine first
Planning on going after boar in WNC/TN
Mean suckers!
Also tear up the forests
Don't forget to teach your kids
They will need it

Are you advocating this...............

That we should teach our children about guns? Won't they just get hurt if they know about them??
Just look at her; she doesn't even know that her finger should be on the trigger.
Ask California's Diane Frankenstien..........she knows what is best for the children.
