Why You Stop the Gun

The short version: A gun that slows or stops before the shot leaves the bird behind. “Keep the gun moving” is the symptom-fix; the real question is what made it stop. There's a specific cause — and it's usually not willpower.

Every head-lift and every bit of arm-shooting stops the gun, so fix those first. Beyond them, a stopped gun comes from your stance, your visual connection, or your timing — each with its own correction.

About the method. These guides come from the coaching system of Bill Erdőss, an Olympic clay shooting coach, built around one idea: diagnose the cause of a miss, not the symptom. The same logic powers ClaysBuddy's shot heatmap, which finds that cause in your own rounds and tracks whether your fix is working.
