I have noticed that pictures of target shooters, or any shooters, in the 1900-1920s period always show the shooter with his left hand extended far down the barrels. Since these men shot for a living, I can only guess that they knew what they were doing. Also, M. V. Highsmith advised me to move my left hand forward to compensate for a stock that felt too short. Finally, on opening day of dove season, before I take to the field, I say to myself, "left hand, Frank."
