Station 4 high house giving me fits on doubles in American Skeet
Been shooting American Skeet for about 2 years now, mostly with my Beretta A400 Xcel Sporting. I'm solid on singles but when it comes to the doubles from station 4, I keep missing the second bird (low house) after hitting the first. I'm using a Skeet choke and Federal Top Gun 2.75" 1-1/8oz #9 loads. Just can't seem to get the transition smooth.

Station 4 doubles are tricky because you're dealing with two very different angles. For the high house bird first, try holding a bit higher than usual - maybe at the top of the window - and focus on a crisp mount. After you break that first target, don't look at your gun or the broken clay. Your eyes should already be finding that low house bird as you're swinging through. The key is to let your body follow your eyes naturally. What's your gun mount like on that second shot - are you rushing it or staying smooth?
