Lean into it, woman. Get your center of mass over your toes, not over your heels. A strong recoil will plant you on your butt.

Might get make up all over the stock.

(Funny story, Mrs. Jewbacca got completely chewed out by her DI for wearing makeup and getting it on her rifle. Can relate the dressing-down in detail to this day.)

So true. I learned my lesson when in WWII I was in infantry training. One day we had a session where we were supposed to hit a tank at 50 yds or so using a rifle grenade off an M-1. I took my shot from the shoulder and landed on my rump with my helmet over my chin. Other guys were laughing while I sat there looking dumbfounded. Should have done what other guys did by firing with the rifles butt stock wedged into the ground. As I recall I was digging my heels in.
