Your smoother swing right to left is not at all unusual. Swinging in that direction helps keep the head on the wood whereas going the other way there is a tendency to push the gun away from your head. Second part of it is your left foot can be moved more easily to the left to keep your stance open for the swing. Again, harder to step to the right to account for game bird going that way as normally you would need to move both feet to do that. As a result your get caught up in the tendency to dip the gun downward as you run out of the optimum portion of your swing to the right and this results in a number of jerky corrective efforts. Try it dry firing and you will see. So I suggest concentrating on head on the wood and making a distinct move with both feet to set up correctly for the left to right swing. Don't know if any of this is your problem, but it sure is mine if I don't concentrate on setting up before the shot. My kids and friends laugh about how everything that flies left on me is dead - that going right the birds have a chance. Now if I could just figure out the straight aways.
