I shoot skeet low gun, safety on the same way I do it in the field. I do this to try to cut down on that look the dogs give you over their shoulder when they've stuck a bird and held it until you get there , and on the flush you do everything wrong and the bird keeps going. Those of you that have dogs know the look. I will never be as good as I should, I think too much, but I'm lots better and more consistent in the field than I was before I started. Before pheasant season starts the small group I shoot with agree once your loaded gun is closed you can throw any bird or birds at any time from that moment until they get tired of standing there. Most of us shoot better that way because we pay more attention and focus better. The purpose of the exercise.
