Would your mother rather be killed by you to prove you were either a great marksperson or gunner or not. If you succeed in not killing her and succeed in shooting the apple or basket off her head she can safely and confidently allow you to hunt the tiger that took her husbands. If you kill her you are neither ready to hunt the neither tiger nor will you do so while she is alive causing her the grief of losing another loved one.
The boy missed the jug of water on his mothers head and resolved to practice for another three years before trying to pass his mothers test again. This time he was able to shoot the handle on the water jug placed on his mothers head without causing a drop of water to be spill out. His mother then said "Actually son, your father was able to shoot the eye out of a needle from one mile away. Can you do this?"
The boy instructed his mother to put a needle in a tree truck and walking one mile from it he tried shooting the needle but missed. He once again resolved to practicing for three more years and not going after the tiger that now was aging and was over 20 plus tears. By the time the boy was 21 and he tried shooting the pin one more time, succeeding this time, the white tiger would have aged to the point of not being as agile as it was when the boys father lost his life to it, could this also be a reason the mother gave him hard tests that would take years to master and thus hopefully buy time for the tiger to age and be easier to kill or maybe be killed by someone else? Note: if the tiger is a group of people no amount of time would age their menace upon the people of the boy’s village.
