Don't forget they actually had to be organized and trained into an actual army before that happened. The British were not chased off by amatuers in the end.
Not exactly pros, either.
They were amateurs that already had most of their fighting skills and got very little in the way of training.
Citizen soldiers who were excellent shots......the very best kind.
