Recognizing this is an achievement in and of itself...I say "Well done"!Now, you see, I'm one of the people who advocates proper teaching, from the start. In spite (or maybe because) of not attending an organised beginners course.
Likewise, I would advise anyone taking it seriously to find a coach or experienced shooting partner. Though I've never had either of those on a regular basis...
Kind of a "we do these stupid things, so you don't have to"
