Default having trouble shooting tighter groups?

Put a 1 inch or 1/2 inch piece of bright colored paper on your target. Concentrating on a smaller target will make you make you shoot tighter groups. I have been doing this for a couple of months, it's the best shooting I've ever done. 1st timeI put the piece of paper up brought my groups at 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 to about a 1 inch diameter around the paper. Before I was always shooting right on the fringes of the 3 inch target on my block. Just thought this could help some people out.

Aim small miss small, aim big and miss big--that is why we say pick a spot, a small spot!!! Great shooting!!!!

I like to use a black marker and make small circles with it to shoot at.Color circles seem to blend in with my pins and I find my self pulling to the edges to see my pin.

I find the best way to get tighter groups is to stand close to the target!
