I read the initial thread and respond the the originator.
I don't claim to be an expert but I've been in this game a long long time to help a new shooter out.
The problem with not reading what is going on in a thread is that you can offer things that will not only not help, but can exacerbate a problem. The OP already had a pad on his stock and both of you telling him to put one on after that had already been discussed and cleared up would only confuse the OP and could cause more problems. Nobody said you don't know what you're doing, but that one tip you offered just like RR did was not beneficial to the OP and if you had read the thread posts you would have known not to offer that suggestion.
