Funny hunting story from years ago. I went deer hunting with some co-workers during shotgun season and one of them only brought a single shell with him. After we stopped laughing and asked why, he matter-of-factly replied "I'm only shooting one deer this trip."

Sure enough, he was one of only two or three of us who bagged a deer that weekend. Now that's confidence!

His name wasn't Scaramanga by chance?

My dad was like that. And he taught us to shoot to kill. To have the confidence and determination (skills) to KILL whatever you aimed a loaded gun at as swiftly and humanely as possible.

There is a whole hunting culture out there called “the one shot club”, or some such, as I recall.
