It totally makes a difference. Not even a whimper from my shoulder. The g/f followed suit as well and happily was firing away with the 870 - and she's all of about 115lbs. Keeping a forward pull with the left while just using the right to pull the trigger and support it a tad away from the shoulder was like night and day. I tried (before the lesson) pulling it tight into the shoulder and while that was better than last time it wasn't nearly as good as this technique.
