Chris, a light grip on the forend for starters. A tight grip on the forend means tensed muscles, which can lead to spastic jerky movements.
On long targets you need to slow down, and smooth out, which comes from a light easy input from the lead hand.
This is what works for me. That, and I don't swing through, or paste out targets, especially when they are long and complicated. Shoot the correct sight picture with barrels moving at target speed, and the target breaks.
Most misses that are not simple miscalculations are caused by a spasm or flinch in your movement. Some misses are just target panic. A relaxed light touch minimizes this.
Basically: Target speed - gun speed - same speed.
