CONGRATS! How far do you led the doves shot left to right or right to left?

at first we used high brass 7 1/2 shot and we were putting the bead right on the beak. When we used low brass we were leading 1-2 bird lenghts.

me and 5 other guys went out all day...up until 6 pm we had hunted for 8-9 hours and had only 21 doves. 6pm hit and we didnt stop shooting till 745. Every guy shot over 4 boxes and we ended up finding 46 but we hit so many more that we couldn't find. It was awesome.
