I think if you are talking about competition like trap where you are trying to clean 100 yes fit.I have broken targets that I thought I really missed when I pulled the trigger but because of a good fit my body adjusted and the target broke.
I can adapt for most poor fits but I am not competitive. I hate a 1 3/4 inch drop at the comb. I usually pass on those.

If you want to kill more game, you need a game gun that fits. Period.

It is in itself an interesting subject and one which is worth reading about - if only to educate oneself about all the factors worthy of consideration. Mike Yardley wrote a very good, readable book on the subject - 'Gunfitting, the Quest for Perfection'.

I am always wary of people who dismiss something out of hand, especially when it is easier to do so than to actually learn what here is to be learned about a subject.

I like to keep an open mind and in education always promoted to my students and teaching staff the idea that before you dismiss a particular methodology, learn all about it, become a proficient practitioner of it, then offer an informed critique of its benefits and shortcomings in relation to he alternatives.

I'll never forget my first truly well-fitting shotgun. I was stupified how much better it was than what it replaced. Hard to go back to mediocrity.
