Station 4 high house doubles - consistently dropping the second bird
Been shooting American Skeet for years with my Browning Citori 725, but I'm stuck on Station 4 doubles. I smoke the first bird from the high house, but I'm consistently missing the second from the low house. Using a Skeet choke and 1 oz of #9 shot at 1200 fps. My hold point is just below the window on the low house, but I feel rushed.

That's a classic tough spot. Try moving your hold point for the second bird a bit further out - maybe 3 feet past the window edge. It gives you a slightly longer look and more time to establish your lead. Also, on that second shot, focus on your footwork and keeping your upper body still; a lot of misses there come from swinging the whole body instead of just the gun. What's your gun mount like on the transition - are you coming off your cheek?
