When I coach, I stand right behind (of course) the shooter so I can see as much of the shot string as possible as it intercepts the bird. Can't do it in all lighting conditions. That plus duct-taping their head down to the stock so they don't raise up (same as in tennis, golf, pool etc.) and there is usually quick improvement.
