    There’s a reason these 4 rules are drilled into everyone’s head.

    To make them habits? Sounds like we agree. Talking about the rules is one thing. People practicing those rules under supervision is where we get results.

    As an instructor, I know damn well you had to correct people from time to time. I’ve done it. That means our students were practicing, getting better.

    I can teach my 8 and 10-yo kids the rules, get them to regurgitate them to me. But until we get on the range, I know one of 'em is going to try to flag me. Again, practice.

    and follow those 4 incredibly simple things

    LOL, that’s why I don’t go to a range anymore. Mine was private, only $150/yr., and no one acted foolish. But still, I want to relax and not have my head on a swivel.
