Fabs, it may have sounded harsh, but I wasn't.

I had went over the shot zones and even have 30 and 40 yrd sticks. rule is to never take a shot beyond 40 unless the bird is wounded. It's not necessary, and it betters the chance for a cleaner kill. This is the reason for being a little testy with him.
I talked to his father after the hunt, we had a chat with him about jumping the gun, and taking iffy shots.

I will be taking him again, just so he can redeem himself.

I've been doing alot of backup shooting this year, with the folks I take hunting it is deffinently needed.

It's not about the numbers, it's about teaching the new guys self control.
