Station 3 doubles in American Skeet - can't seem to get the timing right

Been shooting American Skeet for about 2 years now, mostly at my local club. I'm using a Beretta A400 Xcel with Skeet chokes and Federal Top Gun 2¾" 1⅛ oz #9 loads. On Station 3 doubles, I keep missing the outgoing low house bird after hitting the incoming high house. Feels like I'm rushing the transition and not getting my feet set properly.

Station 3 doubles are tricky because you're dealing with two completely different target angles. What helped me was focusing on the high house bird first - get a solid break on that incoming target, then let your body naturally pivot toward the low house. Don't rush the footwork; a slight weight shift to your front foot as you swing through usually does it. Try practicing just the transition without shooting to build muscle memory. What's your gun hold point on Station 3?
