I consider myself a "LOOOONG" way from an expert shot, but will say my sucess ratio increased dramatically when I learned the "Swing Through" method Larry described for hunting many years back & has served me rather well since. I will also note it is the method prescribed my many "Experts", its not just a method of beginners.
There are also many "Experts" who ascribe to the method eightbore and I describe. Among them are Bill McGuire and Jon Kruger. Both have been accused for years of "spot shooting", but they both will describe what I did as their method. Of course this isn't the best for ALL presentations, but for most of them it works beautifully. I shoot with both occasionally, and can say that Jon is the best on wild birds I've ever known of. I'll bet the farm on him against anybody on wild birds, even though his best known forte is sporting.
