In "Comanche Moon," the excitement builds as a grandfather prepares to witness his grandson’s shooting lessons. He and his friends engage in lighthearted betting, debating where the boy might accidentally shoot Warrior, a playful touch that highlights the camaraderie among them. The bets reveal their friendly rivalry, with one betting on a thigh shot and another on a hit to the rump.
The grandson, Hunter, remains cautious about the bets, recalling a previous conversation with Warrior where he had promised to help Turtle learn to shoot. This reflects a protective side of Hunter, suggesting he values safety and guidance over the competitive nature of the bets among the older men.
