Hunting is only possible if you know what you're doing. You won't improve if you don't understand what you are doing. It might seem like you have improved because of your better shots. But if it wasn't so, those shots won’t make any difference. The same goes for hitting targets. It's impossible to understand why you're not hitting your targets. It is important to understand your goals.
