Crosshair drill #1

Tracking moving targets with your crosshair while strafing left and right is the most effective drill in order to master this skill. Make sure the target is always in your crosshair, and also try switching the targets after one minute, as this will improve your aim transfer speed. Practice this for 30 minutes each day to help place your crosshair perfectly!

The first tip on improving crosshair placement is to "place it at head level". By placing your crosshair cursor at head level, you can get headshots easily because your vertical aim is already at that level, and all you need to do is to aim in the horizontal plane. So, it basically means waiting for your enemy to get into your crosshair and then pressing the fire button. And boom! That's an easy headshot for you.

Also, make sure you keep your aim in the direction where enemy is expected to be headed. If he is at the left side of a boundary or window, make sure you've already aimed towards it. This will help you improve your pre-fires, especially in FPP mode. This practice also helps develop an extraordinary game sense, and sometimes, one gets kills even before the enemy has noticed him.

But remember to keep practicing, as you cannot master this overnight. It takes at least a few weeks to learn, and don't worry about your rank. It means nothing. It's just a variable for the matchmaking system to properly place you in such a match where you and your enemies are at the same skill level.
