Which shotgun shooting technique is recommended for beginners?

  1. Point and shoot.

  2. Close your eyes and fire.

  3. Keep the gun stationary.

  4. SWING-THROUGH--point at moving target and swing with it.

The correct answer is: SWING-THROUGH--point at moving target and swing with it.

One of the most important aspects of learning to shoot a shotgun is being able to effectively track and hit moving targets. Option A, "point and shoot" does not provide any guidance on how to achieve this. Option B, "close your eyes and fire," is not a safe or effective technique. Option C, "keep the gun stationary," is not recommended because it does not allow for proper tracking of the moving target. Option D, "SWING-THROUGH," is the recommended technique for beginners because it involves pointing the gun at the moving target and swinging with it, allowing for accurate tracking and hitting of the target.
