Here's there problem with us old guys shooting high stocked guns.
The RedLine is our 'sight line', from eyeball to Bird (black) X

The Black line is the gun's barrel axis. We are looking, (red line)eyeball to the bird along a path which isn't parallel to the barrel axis (black line)

If we 'could learn' to "float the bird", we would look at the imaginary bird at the
Blue X. That's the Green line.

Changing the length of pull, or Pitch Angle will change how the butt contacts our shoulder, but it won't bring that red line down to parallel the black line.
