Which of the following is NOT one of the five fundamentals of shooting?

  1. Aiming

  2. Panic

  3. Sighting

  4. Follow-through

The correct answer is: Panic

Panic is not one of the five fundamentals of shooting because it does not contribute positively to the act of shooting. The five fundamentals—aiming, sighting, follow-through, trigger control, and stance—are essential techniques that promote accuracy, consistency, and safety while shooting. Panic, on the other hand, can lead to erratic behavior and poor decision-making, which is counterproductive in a controlled shooting scenario. Understanding these fundamentals allows a shooter to develop skills that are critical for effective performance in hunting and target shooting situations.
