Use the following when shooting at birds: BUTT, BIRD, BEAK, BANG! and keep passing the bird up as you shoot. Remember, your birds will be at different ranges unlike skeet which comes at a constant angle and speed, so you have do adjust your lead. Opening day, your lead will be very little on those scudding birds, and will increase w/ distance, and after they get shot at a few times. I always tend to overlead at the beginning of the season, until I slow things down a bit. Hope that works...and good luck.
