Drill 2: turn to each note.
Gun half-up, turn from your ankles and core to each note. Your arms don't move.
Pass: 3 clean rounds.
Tonight's score goes in the next post.

Coached by Grok set tonight's home drill: no range, no shells, a gun and six sticky notes.
Safety first: no live ammo in the room, check both chambers, snap caps only.
Notes go 3 to 4 m away: A, B, C in a row at eye height, then D high left, E low right, F high right.
Drill 1: mount with the bead on a note.
Mount slowly on B over 3 seconds, keeping the bead under the note.
Do 10 reps eyes open, then 10 eyes closed, and check the bead after each closed rep.
Pass: 9/10 with eyes closed. Then speed up to a 1-second mount.
Beginner instinct: look at the gun. That slows it down.
Cue: "Front edge of the clay."
No-gun drill: numbers on a tennis ball, someone tosses it across your view, read the number.

Six clay targets a Compak beginner should know by name:
Straight away: flies directly away at a steady height.
Crosser: flies left to right or right to left across you.
Teal: goes straight up, then drops.
Chandelle: arcs high like a softball pitch, rising, then curving down.
Quartering: goes away from you or toward you at an angle.
Incoming: flies toward the station.
Missed behind? First suspect in Coached by Grok's checklist: you slowed down to check the gap and the gun stopped.
Cue: "Through it."

@AmeliaShotgun Love this. I'm a few weeks into clay shooting myself and posting the misses as I go. Each one teaches me something.

First shotgun lesson: 2 Oct.
The first page of Coached by Grok's checklist isn't about how to hit. It's how to read a miss: ask where it went. Behind, in front, over, under, or not seen. Then change one thing at a time.
