But I am improving and starting to pick up on a few things. I definatly have certain targets that give me trouble.
When I'm shooting left to right the perceived lead is larger than right to left. I think the reason is first I'm right handed so I'm not looking over the barrel. The lead appears shorter on right to left even though the lead needs is the same like say on station 4 on a skeet field. But I'm looking across the barrel. That's my thought anyway.

As far as having trouble with certain targets don't worry. As soon as you figure those out others will become problematic. The Gremlins move!!!!

We call that hitting the professional side.
