Glad things improved, Eric. As for station 4, it sounds like you may be choking on it. Knowing that you miss targets there helps you miss more targets. This is quite common, BTW.

When I start missing targets I normally hit, I work on focus and visualize breaking them.

You can also hit the range at a time and day when it's not busy and maybe shoot a whole practice round from the station giving you trouble. A small token of appreciation to the trap man may get the trap locked down for you so you can work on one angle, if needed.

There's no hard targets, just targets we haven't learned to break consistently.
