Leading the Target: Sustained Lead
The two most common methods of leading targets at long distances are swing-through and sustained lead.
- The sustained lead method is a little more challenging because it requires more experience.
- You estimate the length of the lead necessary to hit the target, and maintain that lead as you swing with the target, fire, and continue the swing.
