Nate, whenever I have issues, I go back to the "basics". It has helped me in the past. We all have bad days, and it will pass. Just clear your head. I tried gap as well, and I just can't seem to do it, so I went back to the way I have always shot, instinctive. I read so much about form and proper alignment , which I agree with to a point. I just shoot how it's comfortable for me. God knows I'm not in any position to give you "expert" advice, I can only tell you what works for me. I don't have perfect form, but it's consistent , and it what works for me. Give me a shout sometime, would love to shoot with you [thumbsup]

Nate,

Do a search on Jay Kidwell and target panic here. He does a good job explaining it. He also has a good book that describes it and how you practice. Try looking here on the Shooters Forum first.

Jay from time to time used to pop on here and chat.

Just a suggestion that costs you nothing at this point.

Good luck.

I just finished Kidwells book Nate and it sure wouldn't hurt. Another solution would be to come to a shoot with me and I'll hassle you mercilessly while you try to concentrate. If you can make it through that we might be on our way. [Wink]

Here is the link to Jay Kidwell. I had the same problem ( could not move to the spot) and this helped alot. Follow his instructions and do not try shortcuts. Good Luck!
