Which action should be avoided to prevent common shotgun shooting errors?

Keeping the cheek snug against the shotgun
Pulling the trigger quickly
Lowering the head and cheek towards the stock
Slowing down the trigger pull

The correct answer is: Lowering the head and cheek towards the stock

Lowering the head and cheek towards the stock can cause common shotgun shooting errors because it affects your sight and aim, making it difficult to hit the target accurately. Keeping the cheek snug against the shotgun and slowing down the trigger pull are both recommended techniques to improve aim and accuracy in shotgun shooting. Pulling the trigger quickly may also cause errors such as missing the target or not hitting it with enough force. Therefore, it is important to avoid lowering the head and cheek towards the stock in order to prevent common shotgun shooting errors.
