Two have stuck in my mind.
1. Aim small, miss small. Glad to see others like it as well.
2. The center of every target is the same size.
I think these are almost the same. I don't shoot like I truly understand the concept.

"I love you, Daddy"

BamBam, that's an awesome motivator isn't it?

Look through the shot. (Enos).

Oh, and another...

If you can't call your shot(s), then you don't really know where the gun was pointed when you pulled the trigger...(Enos)

Good advice

1. "Get behind the gun", Ken Hackathorn. I took a class from Ken last year. This simple piece of advice gave me a whole new perspective on gripping and supporting my gun while firing. Thinking of myself as a solid object behind the gun really helps.

2. "Keep your eye on the front sight". I've gotten this advice from several instructors. I finally followed it.

3. "Work on accuracy - speed comes naturally" - Hey! That almost rhymes. Again, I've heard this from a number of instructors. I've learned to take my time when practicing.

4. "Be the Gun" - Chevy Chase. No. Wait. That's "Be the Ball" from Caddy Shack. Still applies.
