New to the game, first bird good, its the second,( i usually shoot singles fast with 70/30 gun. ) Seems like i am shooting second bird as if its a rising bird and more often than not its topped out, flat or starting to fall, so over it i go!
Ideas? Tx
Shoot first target with controlled aggression and once you slap the trigger, gets those eyes moving and locked on 2nd bird, trust yourself and launch soldiers.
I've told myself that on a few occasions but it's a bad addiction, especially when you post a high score. You're like, I got em, you're mine. Then you have one of those 76 days...
Second bird is either a 7 o'clock or a 5 o'clock target & dont forget to swing through.
rw993 had good advice " DON'T ADMIRE YOUR WORK ON THE FIRST "
The result of your first shot doesn't matter. Once you've pulled the trigger that shot hit or miss is history. Get that pesky first target out of the way & treat the second like its a first bird.
Leo Harrison made a video that covers doubles from start to finish. Worked for him, he won the Grand American Doubles Championship 4 times.

I set my gun up for dead center hits on the second shot and it shoots 2" high at 35yds.
Don't get hung up on thinking you have to shoot a high shooting gun because Joe Cool does it.
