I relate to, stick with it and eventually things come together.I've got 3 years under my belt with the shotgun and it's finally becoming more instinctive to me. Both very different disciplines. I would over think things and found it very hard to know where I was going wrong. A few good tips from more experienced guns helped such as very rarely would you miss in front so I started doubleing by lead, practiced my gun mount every week in a mirror,find a cartridge and choke Im confidant with and stick to it. These tips helped me alot and I'm happy with my progress and I'm really enjoying my sport. My rifles have hardly been fired over the last year. Shotguns are very addictive!
