<span>At first the Americans tried to engage the British using conventional tactics. The British at the time has seasoned troops who fought in previous conflicts. They were already disciplined as well as trained and commanded by veteran officers. The patriots started with volunteers who were new to battle as well as officers who were not on the same level as the British when it comes to experience and training. That’s why the patriots were defeated in battle during the early days of the Revolution. Some of those who fought for the Revolution were hunters and were armed with rifled muskets that can shoot farther and was more accurate. They also knew the land better than anyone and utilized those strengths to fight the British through ambush and shooting them from a distance. The British were not prepared for this can of fighting which left them easy prey for the patriots. The hit and run tactics that they used from their experiences and expertise helped in defeating the British troops.</span>
