Answer:
Hunting, especially when using certain weapons, like shotguns, which are powerful, heavy, and very dangerous at the best of times, is an activity that must be taken very seriously and the techniques to use specific hunting weapons, like shotguns, must be followed to the letter to prevent accidents.
As such, protocols and guidelines indicate that when a hunter is right-handed, and wishes to hunt using a shotgun, which is long and heavy, he/she should assume the following stance: legs and feet spread apart, at shoulder width, the shotgun balanced on the leading arm and hand (which would be the right one), the left supporting the gun itself, and the feet must be placed so that the left foot is slightly forward from the right one, supporting some of the weight of the hunter, and the balance, and angle, of the body, is placed on the left foot.
