Rate this question:
Riding the Recoil: Anticipating the recoil is actually making the pistol recoil before it starts. Hits in this area could be caused by the shooter releasing his trigger too soon after the sear releases.
Heeled Shots: caused by the shooter anticipating the shot, and at the last moment, he gives a slight push with the heel of his hand.
The Lobster area - As a lobster's claw clamor together, so does the shooter's hand. He snatches at the last second.
Jerking the Trigger: The only correction for this is to squeeze the trigger slowly up to and past the let-off point, while not disturbing the sight alignment or sight picture.
