When shooting skeet or trying to site in quick moving game do you lose the target? This can happen when your leading the target and you inadvertently cover it with the bead on your gun, hiding it from your master eye. This happens in a split second but it causes your brain to get confused. You involuntarily stop dead, firing and missing the target on the back side.
The folks at Do All Traps suggest that Bead-checking can happen at any time and doesn’t necessarily mean that the target was hidden from view. You need to ensure that you are not having any form of visual confusion, that you are not hiding targets with the barrel of the gun. Changing the swing plane of your shotgun will help and keeping your head down throughout the shot is a must. Do this and you will start putting more shots on those targets
