Struggling with consistency on long crossers at my local course
There's this one station at my club that's killing me - a 45-yard left-to-right crosser that's basically a chandelle presentation. I'm shooting a Browning 725 with an Improved Modified choke and Federal Top Gun 1-1/8oz #8 loads. I can hit it maybe 50% of the time, but I'm either behind it or overleading. My footwork feels awkward trying to track it.

That's a tough bird! I shoot a Beretta 686 with similar setup. For those long crossers, I've found dropping to a Modified choke helps - IM can be too tight if you're not dead on. Try starting with your weight more on your front foot and really commit to the swing before you see the target. Don't watch the bead, watch the target and let your body follow through. What's your foot position like when you mount?
