Shot a 100 birder, last Wednesday and a 50 birder today and have developed a bit of an annoying habit which is causing a few misses. Due to an extended visit from Arthur Righteous in my neck and shoulders, I have found myself calling for the target and starting to mount the gun before the appearance of the clay. My usual clay gun, a Miroku trap, weighs in at around 8 1/4 lbs. I have started using my Beretta 303 which is just over 7lbs and although better, premature movement is still occuring, usually after a couple of pairs of 3 or 4 pair stands. I find I am now concentrating more on keeping the gun still, than any of the other points that lead to success. I am due to start physio in early New Year, but anyone who has overcome this bad habit, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks W.
