Visualization Separates the Top Shooters from the Rest

There are two things we see that separate the top shooters in both skeet and sporting. First, the ability to visualize exactly what the shot is going to look like before they even load the gun. And second, how comfortable they are in the competitive environment.

So how do you ascend to the levels of the ones at the top?

Begin to visualize your shots as a movie with the target coming to you and the muzzles taking their speed and line from the approaching target. Stop reacting and chasing the target and trying to fix the shot at the end. Begin to plan the shot in detail and begin to anticipate the target as it is coming to you.
