I have been shooting shotgun for years (13+), shooting alot of skeet and hunting live birds. I do very well, and enjoy it.
I have recently (last 2 years) transitioned into shooting rifle and pistol. From a rest with a rifle I squeeze the trigger and can put rounds in good groups at 100yds on irons. From a rest with a pistol I can put up good groups, and squeeze very well. I can squeeze from a standing position with either rifle or pistol and am confident with either.
However when I move to rapid fire with a pistol, or switch between multiple targets, I pull the trigger like I am back shooting a shotgun. I tend to yank the trigger rather than squeeze like I should. When I transition between targets I tend to pull the shot very badly. Making my shots over 1' from where I intend to hit.
Is there any exercises you can suggest to help me overcome this problem?
